In 17 separate competitions between cyclists and motorists, 12 bike riders emerged victorious in head-to-head "races" from suburban locations to a finish line at a downtown Victoria coffee shop.

Three races were tied. Only two cars finished ahead of their two-wheeled competition.

In the longest journey, cyclist Colin Doyle, Saanich engineering director, was easily able to beat motorist John Rogers, a View Royal councillor, on an 11-kilometre route. It was the fifth year the two had competed, and Doyle has won each time.

"The purpose is to show that commuting by bicycle does not add any time to your route," said Mia Kohout, Bike to Work Week co-ordinator. "Another one of the messages is you can reap health benefits." Times Colonist staff
