Spring Roll Challenge

The RoundTrip Spring Roll Challenge takes place every April in honor of Earth Month.

This fun, free initiative encourages people who live and work in Dane County to swap solo drives for biking, riding the bus, walking, rolling, and carpooling more often—and celebrates those already choosing sustainable transportation year-round.

Note: We love walking and biking for fun and fitness, too! But for this challenge, only trips that replace a solo drive—helping reduce emissions and save money—count toward your total.

How to Join 🏆

Anyone 18 and older can join the Spring Roll Challenge by creating a free RoundTrip account!

During the challenge, simply log your green trips in the RoundTrip CommuteHub for chances to win exciting weekly and grand prize drawings.
