I saw that today. I'm supposed to be off on May 16, so I can't decide whether I should work anyway and ride into DC, or to ride to Silver Spring to collect my t-shirt and water bottle and pretend I rode to work.
Would that be cheating???

Oh, puh-leeze, DB...you are the poster-woman for biking to work! Cheating on Bike to Work Day is not in your vocabulary!! You don't need a day.
That said...you always need a new t-shirt. So, bike to Silver Spring. Be there for 7:30-ish and we'll hook up! I'll introduce you to Mike from the Bicycle Place, who usually staffs a booth and gives away a bike or two and does minor mechanical tweaks. We'll gnosh on a banana. Swill some coffee. We'll do lunch (well...breakfast), dah-ling!
It'll be fabulous!

I could never manage to bike to my office from here. But I see that one of the pit stops is on my work 'campus' as it were. I could manage to bike from a friends house, so maybe I'll have to do that with him.
Cheating yes, but really, I could never make it to my job from my house. Which really just says I either need a new house, or a new job.

Thanks for posting this; I need to put it on my calendar.
I'm hoping to get in my first commute of '08 this week. Wednesday is looking pretty good.I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

Maybe I'll ride the Xtracycle and load up on groceries at Whole Foods on my way home...

OK, I'm registered; North Bethesda rally point.
I think I'm going to try commuting tomorrow, even though it'll probably be windy (I think the overnight rain is going to end early enough to make this possible). Maybe I'll do Friday also!I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...
