Tracking Commutes:
Once registered, participants can begin tracking their commutes as of June 1, 2015 using the Ride with
GPS App. To “Track” a commute, participants must record their trip on the Ride with GPS App. Once
you've started your trip with the App, you'll have the option to stop once your destination is reached.
You’ll then be prompted to "Save or Delete” your ride. Just save the ride and input the phrase “CSCC” in
the ride name. The phrase CSCC will allow us to track everybody’s commutes. Record commutes
without the phrase “CSCC” in the name will not be counted.

Commute vs. Casual Ride:
A commute has two points---a start and a finish. A casual ride begins and ends in the same place and
has only 1 point. Think of it as replacing a car drive with a bike ride to get to a destination counts as a
commute. If you have no destinations other than your house, then it is a ride, not a commute.
WINNER SELECTION
Compiling Commutes:
Cannondale Sport Store employees will be in charge of compiling and totaling individual commutes for
participants. Participants are not required to compile and keep track of their commutes—Cannondale
Sports store employees will keep track of everything. The information extracted from each ride will be
total distance and total time. These two stats, in addition to the total number of commutes, will serve as
the prize categories. At the end of the contest (August 10, 2015), every participant’s commutes will be
tallied and the top 3 participants for each category will win the designated prizes. The potential winner
will be notified on or about August 13, 2015.
