October is Active Transport Month.

Spring is here and what better time to start a new routine. Dust your bike off and join us.

Did you know elsewhere in Victoria 74% of people wanted to walk/cycle more often. The barriers being time/infrastructure/weather. Women are twice as likely to abandon walking/cycling when the journey feels unsafe.

Tell us what your barriers are. We have a TAG - facebook page and you can come and meet us at the Woodend Farmers Market each month. How can we encourage more Active Transport?
