Today is the start of the BTA’s Bike Commute Challenge. The goal is to encourage people to ride their bike to work, and especially to encourage new riders to try it out. Last year I rode 17 days for the month of September and was quite pleased. This year I don’t expect as much given the change in distance. Still, if you want to ride to work, give it a shot. It feels good, and you get an immense sense of satisfaction when you pop a cold one when you get home. Oh, there’s some smugness that comes with it too, and the sense of smugness inflates at the same rate as gas prices.
Go – Ride!
