Bike to Work Day...in the rain?

I got some stuff for Terry. We'll visit him tonight, I think. He's been coming 'round so it'll be nice to visit with him.
I got quite a lot of interest in my Bike Bucks program.

I'm glad that Terry is doing better!

What's your "Bike Bucks" program?

Thanks.

Bike Bucks is a program we are implementing (unfunded - by the grace of our LBSs) to offer financial incentives to bike commuters...ride 100 miles, earn $5 bike bucks that you can spend at area shops. We "borrowed" the program...nearly verbatim and with their blessing and assistance...from a similar program run at NIH: http://www.recgov.org/r&w/nihbike/#bucks Currently, The Bicycle Place and Proteus accept Bike Bucks. Hopefully, we'll get other shops to sign on.

Bike Bucks sounds like an awesome program! I'm all for getting more people riding their bikes.

I'm a contractor with the National Cancer Institute. I wonder if I qualify to participate?

Not for my program!!
Check with the NIH folks.
Their's is open to "NIH employees and contractors."
Their program administrator and club president is on maternity leave, so their program is "on hold" right now. You could zap her an email...you may get a bounce back of who to contact in the interim.

Here's the stuff I picked up (minus the shirt):

That water bottle is possibly the ugliest water bottle in the history of cycling!

I'm so jealous of everyone else's schwag. Even if the color isn't the most-appealing green it still looks a lot better than the hard plastic bottle I got from W&OD Friends. I just noticed that my Bike To Work t-shirt has a hole in the back too.
