Smart Trips Challenge

The RoundTrip Smart Trips Challenge takes place every September!

If you live or work in Dane County, this month-long challenge gives you an extra reason to bike, take the bus, carpool, or walk and roll instead of driving alone whenever you can.

It's free to participate—and when you sign up for RoundTrip and log your trips, you'll be entered into weekly and grand prize drawings.

How to Join 🏆

Anyone 18 and older who lives or works in Dane County can join:

Create a free RoundTrip account.
Log your trips in RoundTrip's CommuteHub platform September 1–30.

Log four round trips during a week to be entered into that week's prize drawing. Log at least 16 round trips throughout September to be entered into the grand prize drawings!

Register with RoundTrip
