What can be won?
Helping to create a liveable environment!
Because choosing to cycle rather than travel by car means that CO2 emissions are avoided, the first winners are of course the environment and climate, along with all of those living in the municipalities where there will be less traffic, fewer emissions and far less noise!
And if this is not incentive enough, then perhaps the many fantastic prizes kindly provided by our national supporters Ortlieb, ABUS, ROSE Bikes, Busch + Müller, Paul Lange & Co., WSM and Schwalbe will help convince you!
Prize categories
As a municipal network, Climate Alliance awards prizes in two categories within each of the five population groups (according to the number of inhabitants):
1. Most active local parliaments
Kilometres per parliamentarian in proportion to the total participating parliamentarians
2. Most active municipalities with the most kilometres cycled
Absolute figures
And here are the prizes …
CITY CYCLING bicycle bags
from Ortlieb
The waterproof “Back-Roller Urban Line” bicycle bag by Ortlieb manufactured exclusively for the CITY CYCLING campaign attaches securely to all standard bicycle panniers (max. diameter: 16 mm), allowing you to transport all essential items by bike. It is the ideal bag for all municipal politicians and cycling enthusiasts on their (bike) journey to work! The highest ranking municipalities will be awarded bicycle bags worth €85 apiece.

Bicycle locks
from ABUS
The most secure of bicycle parking facilities won’t be any help if your bike lock isn’t up to scratch! The BORDO Alarm 6000A by ABUS worth €149.95 is the perfect solution for your peace of mind. Its intelligent motion sensor technology detects the slightest of movements and can distinguish lock-picking attempts from harmless little vibrations such as those that occur when the lock is attached, for example, or a football bounces nearby. It sounds an alarm at a volume of 100 dB to warn of attempted thefts, ensuring worry-free parking even for high-end bicycles.
