Vermont Green FC has announced the 2023 Bike-to-the-Match initiative, in partnership with Local Motion. The initiative will encourage Vermont Green FC fans to engage in sustainable transportation options with the support of Local Motion’s safe and secure valet bike parking service. The valet service is free, and all who participate will be automatically entered in a raffle to win prizes including signed matchday kits, Bern bicycle helmets, Refill90 refillable water bottles, and more.

Local Motion is Vermont’s statewide advocate for active transportation, vibrant communities, and safe streets. Local Motion’s mission is to make it safe, accessible and fun for everyone to bike, walk and roll in Vermont. Local Motion will be the official Valet Bike Parking partner of Vermont Green FC for the 2023 season.

“In our mission to become a Net Zero club, carbon-free transportation is one of the biggest challenges to tackle,” said Vermont Green FC co-founder Matthew Wolff. “The Bike-to-the-Match initiative will reduce the carbon emissions of our matches by encouraging fans to arrive on their bicycles. Local Motion will give those fans the security that their bike will be secure while they enjoy the excitement of the match.”

Raffle winners will be announced at halftime.
