City cycling in Bonn

This campaign by the Climate Alliance network is about cycling as many everyday journeys as possible in a climate-friendly way for 21 days. It doesn't matter whether you cycle every day or only occasionally. Every kilometer counts - especially if you would otherwise have traveled by car. It's not just about the journey to university or work, the Sunday morning bread roll ride is also a contribution to climate protection.

Since 2021, the university has consistently been among the top three teams in Bonn, a strong sign of our joint commitment. We are counting on your support again this year: whether you are a student or an employee - join us in pedaling for the climate!

    This year's time period is from September 10th to 30th.
  • Registration and Conditions of Participation
    This year's team captain of the main team will be Teresa Vallée. You can register now, join the team from the University of Bonn or start your own sub-team. To register, click here. You set a sign for cycling, climate protection and your own health with your participation!

Cycle to university

The AOK summer campaign invites you to cycle to university for at least 20 days between May and August. By switching to a bike, you are not only doing something good for your own body, but also making a contribution to climate protection.

If you manage to cycle for 20 days, you fulfill the conditions of participation and can win one of the many prizes.
