In March 2012, about 1,000 schools in England took part in one of the biggest cycling events ever – The Big Pedal. Almost one million people participated – they cycled to school for three weeks and they saved more than £368,000 in petrol!
The Big Pedal is a three-week competition. Schools must cycle a specific number of kilometres each day. Schools need to record the number of students, teachers and parents on bicycles, and the distance each person has ridden. The school completing the race in the fastest time is the winner. Each school has got a better chance of winning prizes if more people take part. So some schools have also invited grandparents, aunts and uncles to participate.
Today, young people spend a lot of time at their computers. They should exercise more. That is the main idea behind The Big Pedal – to give British children a healthier lifestyle. Cycling is good for the heart and muscles and it also burns up calories. When adults cycle regularly, they are as fit as people ten years younger than themselves. Teachers have said, "During the three weeks of The Big Pedal, the cycling students were more awake and could study better than the other students in the class." The best result is that thousands of children continue to ride bicycles after the three weeks are over.
Cycling, a clean, cheap and healthy way to travel, is good for the environment. People on bicycles create less pollution. With fewer cars on the roads during The Big Pedal, there are also fewer accidents.
