This year’s theme of the Tour SilverFit Mile is: A vacation through Italy!
We invite all locations with a SilverFit Mile (or SilverFit 3D with Mile module) to participate in this fantastic event. The goal of the event is socializing and encouraging clients to cycle as many minutes as possible together within two weeks.
What is the Tour SilverFit Mile: This event focuses on encouraging clients to cycle together for as many minutes as possible within two weeks. A comprehensive activity booklet is available with games, decorating ideas, music and quizzes that can be used during this time. There is also a route booklet with several cycling routes, supplemented with interesting additional information about the routes. (Activity booklet and route booklet will be available in May).
It is always a festive event and residents are extra motivated by this to cycle a few extra minutes. It is an international event with thousands of participants from the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany and England taking part last year. At the end of the two weeks, each country checks which location has cycled the most minutes. The top three locations per country receive a nice prize and all locations receive a participation certificate to hand out to their residents.
Conditions for participation
– Participation in part of the program (several days) is possible. This is up to you.
– Participation in this event is possible only if the location has a SilverFit Mile. No Mile, but interested? At the bottom of this page you will find extensive information about the possibilities.
– During the event participants are invited to share photos and videos on social media. By participating in this event you give SilverFit permission to share these images on our website www.silverfit.com, on our social media channels (Facebook, LinkedIn) and in print materials (such as brochures). If in doubt, please consult with the communications department of the venue or foundation where you work.
Preparation
The anticipation can begin! Before you know it, the time will have come and the Tour SilverFit Mile will kick off on Monday, July 7! Include your clients in the pre-fun and have them help with the decorating of the event. Make the room where the SilverFit Mile is located extra cozy and festive to bring the Tour SilverFit Mile theme to life. Perhaps there are clients who can’t or won’t ride their bikes during the Tour SilverFit Mile? This way they are also involved in the event and can join in the fun. Who doesn’t love a party?
Activity Book
This year’s range of activities such as games and decorations is even more extensive.
It includes:
– Music suggestions
– Decorations (ready to print and versions to get creative with clients yourself)
– Memory
– Guess the picture/puzzle
Route booklet
– In it you will find the most beautiful routes in Italy.
– There is one route per day for a two-week event.
– And there are all the fun facts about each route.
Collect before the event starts
– Borrow goggles and bike helmets for the cutest photos.
– Bike bell for extra fun while biking.
Additional ideas
– Create a large scoreboard to track minutes already cycled.
– Can catering do anything during the event? A nice cake with cyclists on it to encourage the participants? A nice pasta and piece of cannoli or tiramisu afterwards?
Supplies during the event.
Participating venues will receive supplies via email the week of June 2. Please let us know if you do not have access to your email at location, and we will send a USB flash drive (this is only available to customers with a service agreement).
Prizes and winners
Winners will be announced the week of July 21-27 on LinkedIn, Facebook and on this website. By prior arrangement, SilverFit will come and present the prizes in person at the winning locations.
These are the prizes to be won (by participating country)*:

– Second prize – the silver cup for the location with the next most minutes cycled
– Third prize – the bronze cup for the location with the subsequent most cycled minutes

In addition, SilverFit pays attention to all winners on our website and social media channels (Facebook and Linkedin).
An individual certificate can be distributed to each participating client. The certificate template can be found with the shared materials distributed by mail. Nice to make this a small ceremony at your own location! Even more reason for celebration 🙂
*Winners of the Tour SilverFit Mile will be determined based on total minutes biked, number of participants per location and number of bikes used during the event. The prize for oldest participant will be determined based on the data provided by the location during
the event. The award for most creative location will be handed out based on degree of decoration, sociability for residents and the social media attention a location generates during the event. No rights can be derived from this post.
