Hi all,

 

Provide some info and go into the running to win Hoyts movie tickets.
Anyone who provides the info requested in either 1) or 2) above will go
in the running to win two adult Hoyts movie passes.

 

1) No Excuse Zone Melbourne

 

I've attached a great map that I came across online that provides a
rough indication of the cycling times to the Melbourne CBD. 

 

Would be great to try to create something similar for the ANU, but I'll
need some stats to work with. If you're willing to help pls email me the
suburb you ride from and how long it usually takes (single trip - door
to door). It would also be helpful if you advise your level of
experience and fitness. The times will give an approx indication only
but is useful to distinguish a 20min ride by a competitive cyclist from
a 20min cruise taking in the scenery.

 

This info will be kept anonymous. 

 

2) Sustainable Transport Stories

 

I'd like to put collect and share some short sustainable commuting case
studies on our website. If you're willing to share more info than just
your travel times pls provide some or all of the info requested below.
If you don't want the info to go online or you're happy for comments to
be shared but you'd like to remain anonymous pls indicate.

 

1) How do you usually commute to campus (eg ride, walk, bus, carpool,
drive your own car)?

 

2) How long does it take door to door?

 

3) What do you like about your chosen mode of transport? Any advantages
over driving (if applicable)?

 

4) Home Suburb?

 

5) School/Division at ANU

 

6) Any other comments or interesting sustainable transport anecdotes to
share?

 

7) Are you willing to share your story (and possibly a photo of
yourself) online on the transport website?

 

Pass this on to your colleagues. If they win they can shout you a free
movie.

 

Cheers,

 

Adam
