Digital Eskimo has taken comprehensive steps to ensure bikes are readily available to encourage our staff to cycle. Our allocated garage space can fit one parked car but instead we fit in 10+ bicycles to form the studio fleet.
We have a Dahon fold-up bike for quick pedals to meetings which can also be taken on the bus or train, and commuter road-bikes for those of us who ride between work and home. We support a cycling culture and this reaches beyond an individual level. The benefits of cycling are on general health and fitness, a more enjoyable journey and reduction of city congestion.
Our efforts are part of a solution to make our city more people-friendly with healthier streets, better air quality, a greater sense of community and improved quality of life. Bikes aren’t always practical so our mobility policy involves the integration of the bike fleet with a membership for each employee to the GoGet car-sharing program.
To get your workplace to cycle more, there are a few things to think about such as providing showering facilities and a secure lock up area. There is a wealth of information available about cycling in Sydney.
