Nat'l Bike to Work Day

[bikerchick68]

here in San Diego it's tomorrow, May 18... and they're even ADVERTISING it!!! they're using the Amber Alert freeway signs and it's been up all week on the freeways...

I'm not riding tho as I am doing Tour of San Diego on Sat... it's long with a whole lotta climbing... and my commute is just over 40 miles with 2000ft climbing... don't want to be dead for Sat ride!

Ooops, sorry, I thought it was all of California - perhaps it's just N. Cal or just the Bay Area.

BTWD is usually organized by local coalitions in partnership with the local transportation orgranizations. All the Bay Area counties celebrated today. While I love any energizer station, I wish I worked near our downtown. The City Hall and County Administration center stations started a friendly competition--both had pancake breakfasts, but City Hall closed off a block for the festivities and the county added bacon and sausage to their breakfast.

Unfortunately my town doesn't draw attention to this event at all. We're lucky if they mention it during a 5 second clip on the evening news the night before. Despite that, I'll still be riding tomorrow unless the rain looks too formidable.

Maybe I'll ride with DD in tow anyway. I think some of the Starbucks around here are giving out free coffee to people who ride their bikes.
