Teams will compete throughout the day on 12 bicycles at Hawks headquarters at Waverley Park, to generate as much pedal power as possible. All the electricity generated using the bikes on the Future Spark trailer will be fed back into the grid to offset Hawthorn Football Club’s energy consumption for a day.
Ricoh and Hawthorn are inviting local businesses, schools and the community to participate and help keep the bikes running.
