The month of the Bike

That's right folks, May is officially BIKE month. And we are in the middle of bike to work week!

The worst thing about being a reporter is you need to drive a car. A lot.  My last job was in Boulder County, Colorado, where lots of people bike to work daily. Bike to work day (usually a Wednesday in June) is a big deal there -- lots of places have free breakfast stops and after-work happy hours. I covered three bike-to-work-day events, but never participated. Sigh.

This year, I'm thinking of parking my car at the Advocate Thursday night, riding my bike home, then biking to work on Friday.

Does anyone else plan a bike commute? Any good routes or tips for riding in Victoria?

Leslie

Uh huh.  Biking to work in Victoria -- In August.  I hope you don't work in an office with others close by.  It'd take a LOT of perfume.

I really want to bike to work.  It's less than 5 miles one way and I know I can do it.  When gas hits $4/gallon (notice I didn't say if) - It will happen.  I want to do a trial run first for safety reasons.
