ELLIOTT ASSOCIATES' BIKE COMMUTE CHALLENGE

September, 2009 - As part of this month's Bike Commute Challenge, held by the Bicycle Transportation Alliance, Elliott Associates, Inc.'s own Team Acorn has pledged to do our part to bike to work and leave our cars at home.  During the month of September, Team Acorn logged all individual bike commutes in an effort to ride our bikes more, improve our overall health and help the environment too.  On October 8th, the Bicycle Transportation Alliance will announce the winning companies by tallying the percent of total commutes done by bike.  This morning, Team Acorn, completed a combined 60 mile ride, with the farthest acorns traveling all the way from Vancouver to Downtown Portland.  The riders celebrated their accomplishment by cheering over a group breakfast at the finish line.  Way to go Big Team!
