Tired of the pain at the pump? Why not keep the car in the garage and trade in four wheels for two.

That's exactly what members of Team Wonderbike are doing.

So far more than 13,000 people have pledged to bike as often as possible and together have committed to bike, not drive, 12 million miles a year!

Human-powered and carbon-free, the bicycle is the simple, accessible solution to reducing one's carbon footprint ... with sexy legs as an added benefit!

Team Wonderbike is a social movement created by the folks at New Belgium Brewing to inspire and increase the use of one of mankind's greatest inventions: the bicycle.

Team Wonderbike members can upload stories and images and check in with other Wonderbikers at www.teamwonderbike.com. Wonderbikers will get the chance to win prizes, which includes an annual grand prize of a hand-built New Belgium cruiser bike. Participants will receive quarterly newsletter updates and can join the Team Wonderblog forums to post ideas, stories and images.

So what are you waiting for, take the Team Wonderbike pledge today and commit to commute by bike whenever you can. You and the environment will be happy you did!
