25 Anniversary of National Bike to Work Day

And I have ridden for 15 of them....I think....that's the earliest date on the bike bag that they give away each year....that was stuffed in the back of my car now that the county I live in doesn't allow grocery stores (or any store,) to give out bags.

AND the highlight of the day was that my class WON the Walk/Ride to School contest with the most students NOT coming to school by car. We get to keep THE GOLDEN SNEAKER AWARD and everyone got a mini fold up Frisbee.

Is it 12 or 13?

I can't remember my first one...but I do have many of these photos...although this is today's...I arrived just as the "Energizer" Station was being set up....there was coffee...(yuck!) bagels and banana...and a cool bike bag filled with goodies.

Last night I got out my work bike- BUT Daughter #2 rode it home from work and got a flat- of which I did not want to fix...so I took the wheel to the bike shop BUT the tire was too worn...I tried to take the Captain's wheel and trade it with mine BUT I couldn't get the quick release brake to release- sooooo, I got out my road bike- which cannot go off roading on the trail I ride to work. Sooooo I rode to the Energizer Station, got my goodies and took the bus up the big hill to work. So my bike ride was only about 3 miles. This was the first time I put my bike on the front rack of the bus- I had watched a YouTube of it and it was actually quite easy.

The way home I took another route straight down hill and added 3.7. Now that it is lighter earlier I can start riding my bike again...I am afraid of bobcats if I ride before sunrise.
