Count me in! My first time was last year, and I wasn't even working. Rode my bike to the start, got lots of goodies, then did the ride to city hall, and then home to sleep in for a bit! This year I am working, but I can at least go to the start line and get some more goodies before I bike to work.

Every day is bike to work day for me too. We're holding Bike to Work day on May 24 this year. That's because the hospital contacted me a couple weeks ago and said "We want to do something for bike safety. Got any ideas?" and I suggested they do a Bike to Work Day, but since the official date was too soon to pull it together, we just picked a different day.
We're starting a TS101 class that same day. I'm really excited about that.2009 Trek 7.2FX WSD, brooks Champion Flyer S, commuter bike

Our city (Calgary) just had Bike to Work Day this past Friday. I rode as usual (nearly daily) into work. Stopped on the way to have pancakes, sausage and coffee. When I got to city hall, there were a few politicians and staff that were heading out for a bike ride to...the place where I had pancakes.
It was a media event which was important, because the city has earmarked $28 million over 3 years for cycling. There is an aggressive plan to put in more bike lanes.My Personal blog on cycling & other favourite passions.

I'm in!
I'm also doing the national bike challenge thing, Philly is using that as their commuter challenge this year, and our team won all three months last summer so we've gotta defend that title

I'll be riding, as I am a daily bike commuter, too. I co-captained this event last year as well as our local Bike Commute Challenge month. My co-captain and I are hoping to pass on the team captain hats starting with the Bike To Work week/day.

I realized this morning that the SF Bay area's BTWD is a week ahead of the national WTWD (moved because the Tour of California is going through SF that week!) , so that's why everyone else seems to be doing it on May 17th!
