Its that time of year again when we bikers have an opportunity to show everyone how great our lifestyle is and how cycling is a great way to travel…
The Bike to Work Week ‘Car vs Bike Challenge’ takes place this coming Monday, May 11th starting at the Mission Creek Regional Park on Springfeild Rd and ending at our 1st Bike to Work Celebration Station at Mission Sports Fields.
We need your help…we need cyclists to come out and ride in the challenge so we can show the drivers that cycling is a fast, effective way to travel that is much more fun that dealing with traffic! Please come out if you can and/or spread the word to other cyclists about this fun event.
Below is an outline of the challenge and attached is a route map showing the two optional cycling routes to the finish line (one on street and one on the Greenway). We need road cyclist, mountain bikers, recreational cyclists…who ever. This year’s race will be fun for all whether participants are 1st time commuters or experienced ‘silent threat’ racers..!
Note, no need to RSVP as noted below if its not convenient for you (feel free to do so if you can though).
If the ride isn’t enticing enough, remember that there is a free pancake breakfast and social at the finish line to kick off Bike to Work Week!!!
(Bikers like food so I’m hoping this is enough to convince you now).
