Osprey公司大力支持员工骑自行车去上班
2007年7月3日Osprey Packs公司宣布公司23名职员参加6月27日的科罗拉多骑自行车去上班活动，18人选择全程乘自行车，骑行距离共计244英里。
“我们非常兴奋的是我们几乎100%的职员今天骑自行车去上班”Osprey行销主管Gareth Martins 说。“我们希望Osprey能为其他地方企业树立一个榜样，可以不驾驶您的汽车去工作同样很重要和有趣”。可以选择许多参与方式，Martins解释说超过一半的雇员骑自行车，合伙使用汽车或者步行上班。
雇员们要从Osprey总部周围的几个小镇骑车数英里来上班，但由此节省了12.2加仑的汽油（每辆车每20英里耗油1加仑）。据Sam Mix计算雇员们此举少向大气中排放340磅的二氧化碳。
为了鼓励骑车上班，公司向那些已经身体力行的员工提供了$1500的奖品。这些奖品由一些户外厂商提供，包括Outdoor Research，The McNett Corporation， Osprey Packs Inc. ， Statik Mountain。
除了设立骑车上班日外，Osprey为了保证这项计划的进行还对整年坚持不开车上班的雇员进行货币奖励。自2006年该计划实施以来，已有2217人坚持不开车上班，公司也因此支付了$1108.50的奖金。

Osprey Packs， Inc. Boosts Sustainable Travel Program During Bike to Work Day
Cortez， Colo.， July 3rd， 2007 - Osprey Packs Inc. cranked out multiple miles and much enthusiasm from its staff during Colorado‘s Bike to Work Day on June 27. Of the 23 people who came to work， 18 chose to travel by bike， which collectively totaled 244 miles in commuting distance.
“We’re thrilled that nearly 100% of our staff biked to work today” said Gareth Martins， Director of Marketing for Osprey. “It is our hope that Osprey can set an example for other local businesses as to how important and fun not driving your car to work can be”. Though many chose to participate by pedaling in， Martins explained that more than half of employees bike， carpool or walk to work with some regularity throughout the year.
Traveling from several towns around Osprey’s Cortez headquarters， employees racked-up the miles and prevented an estimated 12.2 gallons of gas from being burned （20 miles per gallon average in a vehicle）. Based on calculations from Sam Mix， Osprey Marketing Associate and Corporate Sustainability Coordinator， employees were responsible for preventing 340 pounds， or 28 pounds per gallon， of carbon from being released into the atmosphere.
As an incentive to pedal their way into work， Osprey offered $1500 in prizes to eager employees who participated. Prizes were offered for the event from outdoor companies including Outdoor Research， The McNett Corporation， Osprey Packs Inc. and Statik Mountain.
In addition to Bike to Work Day， the Osprey Sustainable Transportation Program provides financial incentives for non-motorized commuting to employees throughout the year. Since its inception in 2006， the program has seen 2217 individual non-motorized trips with $1108.50 paid in rewards to staff.
