鈥濫very day, several hundreds of workers commute to the mill on a bike. In order to support this active means of transport which moreover strengthens the relationship among colleagues at workplace, the mill will cover their registration costs. Furthermore, we have rewarded the best team of the mill as well as the extraordinary performances of individuals who rode or walked the highest number of kilometres,鈥� says Barbora 膶ern谩 Dvo艡谩kov谩 who is in charge of Corporate Responsibility at LIBERTY Ostrava.

天博体育官方网站 most kilometres were recorded by Pavel H艡iv艌ack媒 who had ridden 2, 093 km. He ranked 9^th among the Ostrava bikers and on a national level he came in 65^th. 鈥濱 live in Krava艡e and go by bike to work every day. 天博体育官方网站 shortest way measures 38 kilometres one way. I wanted to collect some extra kilometres during the challenge so I took a longer way,鈥� explained Pavel H艡iv艌ack媒 from the hot strip mill. His performance is also remarkable due to the means he has been using. 鈥濧 friend of mine was throwing away an old female bike. I was sorry for the bike and so I took it and I have been riding it for ten years now.聽 Annually, I ride over seven thousand kilometres so the only original components are the frame and the saddle but they still hold up,鈥� he added.
