Bike to work day May 10- who's in?

We had a great morning for a ride yesterday and I rode with a group estimated at 400 at the start, though the red lights broke up the groups along the way. I've been riding to work a few times a week, but usually alone so this was a lot of fun!

Trek: did they play the wiggle song on Kfog? Funny

I'll be doing my 6th BTWD this Friday. Unfortunately, this year I feel like a poser since I have not yet commuted at all this year.

I thought BTWD was for people who didn't bike except in May.
A friend of mine said he always drove his car on BTWD because it's about "alternative transportation" and for him, biking & walking is normal and using the car is alternative!

Here is me taking part in BTWD, it is quite rare to get a picture of both me AND the bike at the same time It was chilly...and DARK when I left home. I've a very different set of bike clothes to wear on the ride home.

Our city dosen't start Bike To Work Week until May 28th. There is one station I hit on my commute in the morning on Wednesday, and another one I can go out of my way to hit on Friday. There is another close one, but it dosen't open until 8:00am by which time I'll already be at work >: (

I am really exited about getting a free muffin, haha.

I bike to work everyday anyway, it's faster than taking public transit and I don't have to worry about missing a connection if I'm 5 minutes late.

This week is Bike to Work Week here, and today might be The Day, but I was working at home today, so I biked when my car was having an oil change (weird, I know, but it was a gorgeous day and better than waiting in the waiting room). Tomorrow I'll bike to work in the morning, as I did on Wednesday, and then Sunday as well, which our church celebrates as "Sustainable Travel to Worship" Day - trying to encourage a variety of alternatives: carpooling, driving a hybrid, walking, as well as biking. I'll bike.

I used to bike all the time after taking the car to the shop. We only had one car, so it was either that, or I'd have to wait on the car, which sometimes was multiple days. (It was having clutch problems.)

Now the mechanic is just down the street from my office, and anyway my husband takes it in for maintenance because he's the primary user of the car. Also since we finally got the clutch issues figured out, it's only in the shop a couple times a year for an oil change. And then it's because it's been 6 months, because we hardly put any miles on it anymore.
