COMMUTER PROGRAMS
Workout to Work - BIKE
Biking some or all of the way to
work offers many rewards: it’s healthy and it helps the environment.
Here are more rewards: gift cards to sports stores and monthly
prizes.
Enter the miles you walked or biked online every month to get your
rewards.
Also attend special events such as lunch workshops, walking tours,
and bike to work events.

Guaranteed
Ride Home - Have a Ride Home When the Weather is Bad:
Sign up for the Guaranteed Ride Home Program
and as a cycle commuter you can use your ride in the case of
inclement weather. The program provides you with a free ride
via a taxi up to six times a year in case of an emergency, illness
or unexpected overtime while at work. For cycle commuters
only, you can also use the program if the weather conditions make it
unsafe to ride home from work.
Bicycle
Commuter Group
In an effort to connect
more with bike commuters Seaport TMA has a Bicycle Commuter Group
and we would like to invite you to participate!
The purpose of the Bicycle
Commuter Group is to:
-
Provide
feedback about bicycle parking, roadway conditions and safety
issues in the South Boston Waterfront;
-
Brainstorm
ideas for the annual Bike Week events, workshop topics and new
incentives to encourage people to bike to work;
-
Network with
fellow bike commuters about gear, routes, bike shops, etc;
Most meetings
take place during lunch and Seaport TMA provides food and a
location. All we ask from you is that you can attend at least three
meetings a year and actively provide feedback and ideas so we can
better serve you.
If you are
interested in participating in the
group please
contact Lauren Grymek via
email. All abilities are welcome!
Bicycle Buddy
Program:
Seaport TMA is looking
for experienced bicycle commuters who are familiar with their bike commute
to volunteer as a Bicycle
Buddy and looking for newcomers to bicycle commuting who would like
to ride with a buddy a few times to work.
We match buddies
with cyclists who have yet to try biking to work. If there is
someone who matches your commute you will
set up a mutually convenient time and place to meet so that you can
bike to work together at least once.
Encourage fellow cyclists who
have never biked to work before to try it, help them become familiar
with a route, and to encourage them to make bicycle commuting a
regular part of their routine. If you are interested in being
a Bicycle Buddy or would like to find a buddy, please register
here.
Health Club Subsidy
Program - Coming Soon!
Many employers do not provide shower facilities for their employees
(but we applaud those who do). If you're in need of a place
to freshen up when you arrive at work by bike, sign up for Seaport TMA's subsidy program. We'll provide you with a $20 coupon to use
towards a monthly locker room membership at Wave Health &
Fitness at the Seaport Hotel.
