Team Thermotraffic cycled 4,447 kilometres and came ninth in the Versmold City Cycling Challenge—just behind the LiVe running club and ahead of the Versmold-Dobczyce Friendship Association.

The individual cyclist’s results were even better: each of our 17 cyclists rode 262 kilometres, putting us in seventh place overall. However, with 311 cyclists in total, we only managed tenth place.

The main thing is that we did something positive for ourselves and for the environment. We’ll definitely be taking part in the City Cycling Challenge again next year.

We invited everyone and indeed everyone turned up: employees from the entire Thermotraffic family from across Europe gathered to celebrate at Hotel Klosterpforte in Harsewinkel-Marienfeld.

It was the first major celebration since the Christmas party of 2019. After such a long time, it was clear that the 200 or so colleagues from all over Europe had a lot to talk about—which worked pretty well in English.

The afternoon football match not only provided some much-needed exercise for some of the staff, but was also great entertainment for the spectators. In the evening there was a barbecue. The party went on until late the atmosphere was so good!

Maths, German and English weren’t on the timetable this time for the Year 9 students at Versmold Grammar School. Instead, the 13-14 year olds stopped off at various companies during a rally. And Thermotraffic was one of the stops.

Once we’d given the students the overview of our company, we wanted to see if they’d been paying attention.

For the haulage department, they had to plan a route from Hamburg to Versmold with several stops along the way for unloading. For IT, they had to identify different cable connectors. They were given 30 minutes to present their solutions. Our assessment: they all passed.
