Abstract: 
Energy Probe's COMMUTER CYCLING PROGRAM is designed to encourage the use of the bicyles as an inexpensive, energy-efficient, healthy and environmentally-sound means of transporation. The PROGRAM includes an urban Cycling Handbook containing practical information for the urban cyclist; a booklet for employers encouraging them to provide cycling facilities such as change areas and secure parking; Commuter Cycling Seminars; bicycle check-over clinics, and maps of bicycle routes.

Energy Probe also operates a bicycle hot line (416-978-4842) and offers courses on "bicycle survival" and maintenance.
