Pedalling a million km for cleaner water

[ March 31, 2026   //   ]

Austrian forwarder Gebrüder Weiss has launched the fifth edition of its GWcycles international cycling campaign. The goal: to collectively cover a million kilometers – and in doing so, remove up to ten tons of plastic waste from rivers and coastal regions.

For every kilometer cycled, Gebrüder Weiss funds the collection and proper disposal of ten grams of plastic waste, in partnership with Berlin-based environmental company CleanHub.

Participation is open to everyone worldwide. Distances are tracked via the free Radbonus app, which is compatible with common fitness trackers. Initial rewards are available from as little as 50 kilometers, and all prizes are made from recycled materials.
