The Bicycle Transportation Alliance (@BTAoregon) kicked off their 2014 Bike Commute Challenge on September 1st and REN Cycles is proud to be a major sponsor of this great community event. As a top prize for one lucky rider with a 100% participation rate REN provides the ultimate commuter bike, built off of our epic WAYPOINT chasis. Every participant who rides to work 100% of days in September is eligible to win the bike at a drawing held at a celebration banquet the following month.

In 2014 more than 2000 riders commuted to their job site by bicycle every workday in September, and every one of them wanted to win our no-nonsense WAYPOINT. The BTA's Bike Commute Challenge awards were held on October 9th at Portland City Hall and Nita Galambos topped the night by being named winner of the Grand Prize.

A serious commuter and avid cyclist, Nita made a few upgrades and personal touches to the WAYPOINT and we were absolutely thrilled to present her with the bike. Congratulations on a very fortunate but hard earned prize, Nita!
