Founded in 2006 to promote bicycling for the environment, fun, fitness and transportation, CBBEL’s multi-award-winning Bike to Work Program works to make it as easy as possible for every employee to commute by bike. Our Rosemont headquarters has on-site shower and changing facilities, as well as fleet bikes for those taking public transit. We provide assistance on routes and gear and hold annual competitions and quarterly giveaways to keep motivation high. Best of all: employees earn $1 for every mile commuted by bike.
Since the creation of the year-round Program, employees have ridden over 450,000 miles. Commuting by bike promotes employee health and fitness, increases employee morale, helps the environment and makes our bikers better designers.
CBBEL is recognized by the League of American Bicyclists as a Platinum level Bicycle Friendly Business, which denotes an employer’s efforts to encourage a more bicycle-friendly atmosphere for employees and clients and honors innovative bike friendly efforts. For seven consecutive years, CBBEL has been named one of the Best Workplaces for Commuters, which recognizes leaders offering outstanding commuter benefits to their employees. In addition, CBBEL is recognized as a reporting member by Clean Air Counts.
