2023 was a revolution on two wheels for DASH and our riders! Together, our riders clocked up a staggering 304,757km, which is roughly the distance from London to Sydney and back again! That's like cycling the Great Wall of China over 40 times* – talk about conquering distances!
But it wasn't just about racking up the miles. Every pedal powered journey was saving pounds and the planet:
We collectively saved a whopping 63,872kg of carbon emissions – that's the same weight as a herd of 10 elephants!* Not only did our riders ditch the gas guzzlers, they actively helped us offset over 100 tonnes of additional CO2e emission through our 400% carbon offset of each bike – that's more than 160 tonnes in total, basically a whole forest worth of fresh, clean air.
It wasn't just the planet thanking you – your bodies were doing cartwheels too! DASH riders reported feeling fitter, happier, and more energized. We estimate that our riders burned over 4 MILLION calories between them, that’s the same as 6,800 McDonald’s Big Mac burgers.
When it came to new wheels, the RadRunner was undoubtedly the bike of the year, with 19% of DASH riders choosing its comfy cruiser style. But hey, there's a perfect DASH e-bike for everyone, whether you're a city slicker or a weekend hill-climber.
These numbers tell a story, but the magic lies in the individual journeys – commutes conquered, hills climbed, and the fresh air embraced. Every DASH rider is contributing to a cleaner, healthier world, one commute at a time.
So here's to an even more epic 2024! If you’re not riding with us yet, it’s time to join the DASH revolution.
Happy Riding,
Team DASH
