That initial excitement has naturally tapered off, but what’s encouraging is the steady stream of new applications that continues to come in. It shows that the program has staying power and continues to resonate with staff. Everything is running smoothly, and the initiative has become a quiet but powerful part of our workplace culture.”
What has your experience been with Workride?

Michael Jamieson, NZ HR Manager, Stantec
Workride asked Michael what was the biggest surprise to their team through using our service?
“One of the most pleasant surprises has been the level of awareness among staff about the benefits of cycling to work, especially when they have access to a high-quality e-bike. It’s clear that when the right tools are available, people are more than willing to make sustainable choices.”
What has your experience been with Workride?
“It has been overwhelmingly positive. From the outset, the process was smooth and intuitive - staff found it easy to navigate. What’s been especially rewarding is seeing how quickly the initiative translated into real benefits. There’s more bikes and scooters parked outside and conversations about weekend rides or new commuting routes becoming part of our daily chatter.”
