Bike To Work Festivities?

[radacrider]

Portland, OR's is tomorrow. There is a big info gathering from 9-1 with speakers, information booths and the like.

Specific to our work, we are having a waffle and fruit breakfast for the bike commuters coming that day, hopefully adding a few new riders. To help the curious, we had a bike commuting brown bag on monday to answer questions.

Weather-wise, we are suppose to have another awesome, dry spring day.

I've been talking up Bike to Work Day at my office and promised food for anyone who rides in - fruit, muffins, juice, granola bars. We're doing it tomorrow. But wouldn't you know it, despite living in a very dry part of the world, it's been cold and rainy all week. I mean really rainy. Tomorrow is only a 50% chance of more rain but morning temps will be in the 40s. I know at least 3 of us will ride, but quite possibly no one else. Oh well, granola bars keep.

What's wrong with this picture? The Portland & Seattle women are posting about beautiful spring days while those of us in Colorado & Utah are suffering through cold & rain. Portland & Seattle women, won't you please take your weather back.

And no Denver - you keep it we don't want it no no no no no no no its been way to long since we've seen the sun for more than one day in a row and if it starts to rain again I'm going to throw a great big tantrum......

Don't look at the weekend weather forecast.

The other day we had more rainfall than in the entire month's average for May. So I'd say we're long overdue for some nice weather!!

After a bit of very specific googling, I determined that Colorado's bike to work day is June 22 (June is officially bike month in CO? Apparently? News to me!).

And the sun is out right now but I woke up too late based on the weather forecast so I have to drive today anyway.

On the flip side, there's so much snow in the mountains that Aspen is re-opening the slopes for Memorial Day weekend.

I think we've had SO MUCH MORE than our fair share ...first 70 degree day today since... last September I think? First four days in a row of sunshine since... I don't know, I can't remember back that far!

Alas though, I think it will be our turn again by Sunday.
