City cycling 2024
Register, take part and win
Cycling is in the blood of the people of Bocholt and it is worthwhile for many reasons. Most of them are well-known: being mobile and flexible; more fitness, health and joie de vivre; doing something for the environment and the climate.
Regular cycling is particularly worthwhile again in May! This year, the CITY CYCLING competition is once again offering prizes for those who cycle more than 150 kilometres in total during the three campaign weeks from 1 to 21 May will be entered into a prize draw.
The prizes are
- an urban bike from ROSE BIKES, a SNEAK 2 EQ
- a westmünsterland Solar - Balcony Power Plant "Premium" including mounting kit (balcony, saddle or flat roof)
- a travel voucher from FIRST Reisebüro Drachter, worth 250 euros
But anyone can win!
ALL CITY CYCLISTS, regardless of the number of kilometres cycled, will automatically be entered into a prize draw for further prizes (e.g. panniers).

Additional profits for schools
The competition within the competition! This is the name of the NRW school cycling competition. Pupils, together with their parents and teachers, can collect kilometres for the city of Bocholt, but also for their own school or class/year group. Further information is available at School Cycling NRW.
The city of Bocholt is offering prizes for the class, year group or "Abi" fund. Which class or year group will cycle the most kilometres in total and in relation to the number of participants?
Achieving 150 kilometres by bike in three weeks is not particularly difficult for typical Bocholt cyclists. "It's the regularity that counts and not necessarily individual long tours", confirms city councillor Daniel Zöhler. In principle, however, all participants have something to gain!
"In terms of transport policy, daily journeys by bike instead of by car harbour enormous potential", says Zöhler. "Less cars mean fewer parking spaces and therefore more room for green spaces and quality of life in the city. Every movement also means health promotion".
Exciting cycle tours
Leisure tours bring additional benefits in the form of variety and fun, as well as socialising with like-minded people. Guided, themed cycle tours for 20 people are therefore currently being organised for the weekends during the campaign period. These are offered free of charge, but due to the limited number of participants, written registration is required at klimaschutz(at)bocholt(dot)de.
If you are still looking for ideas for cycle tours in May, you will find them under the menu item Leisure & Tourism.
From 20 April, the popular cycling map packs for city cycling will be available at a reduced price from the Bocholt Tourist Information Office. This means that you can plan your own tours in advance as part of the CITY CYCLING campaign weeks from 1 to 21 May. It's also worth taking a look HERE.
