Mimi, congrats on scoring what sounds like a great sweater . . . even if it doesn't fit you!

I wonder if participation in the Cascade challenge is up or down from last year? Seems like there was a lot of momentum for bike commuting last season, but with all the recent layoffs . . .

I'm starting to freelance, so I don't have a regular place to bike to. I tried to start a "bike to find work" team within my field (the Architecture/Engineering/Landscape firms in town do their own little challenge as well this month), but no interest. So I'm just biking for fun.
