Yes, I am seriously writing about this! I need to write a fun blog and since it's
Bike and Walk to Work Month, why not? June is the designated month for biking and walking to work and the month is filled with events in Boulder Colorado. Bike to Work Day will be held on Wednesday, June 23. It is presented by
GO Boulder and coordinated by
Community Cycles. First celebrated as Bike to Work Day in 1977, the event has grown and continues to encourage thousands of commuters to explore their transportation options.
Serious facts provided by the
City of Boulder about 2009:
7,137 people signed-up for Bike to Work Day
1,670 (nearly 25 per cent) of those who signed up biked to work for the first time
322 organizations in Boulder County participated in Bike to Work Day
144,759 car miles were saved by those that did not drive and instead biked, teleworked, carpooled, walked or rode transit on Bike to Work Day.
Way to go Boulder!!!!! Now for some not so serious information on how to realistically bike to work and not stink out your co-workers
