Bike to Work Day
This week Californian commuters are encouraged to leave their cars at home and bike to work.
This special week is organized by the California Bicycle Coalition -a non profit organization that advocates increased bicycle use, access, safety, and education, by promoting the bicycle as an everyday means of transportation and recreation.
Various special activities have been organized locally by ride share agencies, cities, counties, employers, bicycle advocacy groups, bike shops and others who support bicycle transportation in California's communities.
For more information visit California bike commute's website.
Tomorrow, on May 14th, there will be pit stops throughout Los Angeles- sponsored by local organizations (such as the Los Angeles County Bicycle Coaltion)- to encourage workers to get a little fresh air and take their bike to go to work on that specific day. It will be a good chance for everyone to meet fellow bicyclists, break for refreshments, and win prizes and giveaways. Click here to know the exact locations of those pit stops.
Plus L.A. County transit bus operators are offering free rides for bicyclists on this day only as well. Participating lines include Metro LA, Beach Cities Transit, Culver City Bus, Pasadena ARTS bus, Santa Clarita Transit, Norwalk Transit, and others.
