Wow, there must be something in the air. Yesterday, I had four fellow staffers commute in on a bike and today we had one more. It's awesome to see so many people ditching the car and riding.
I love to see the bikes they're riding, too. Some of them are dusting off the old mountain bike in their garage. A couple of them are riding nicer newer bikes. And two of the guys are riding free bikes from our goods distribution ministry at the church I work for (like the red Schwinn above). It's not about what you ride. It's about riding. This hodgepodge of bikes proves that.
For me, I was on the Xtracycle today. It's such a fun bike to ride. Strangely enough, most everyone had decided to mow on the same day. I heard tractors and mowers the entire ride in.
What a great way to start the day. I'm glad others are catching on.
Get out there.
Thats awesome. I got a fellow co-worker to start bike commuting by suggesting he uses a folding bike to take the train part way in. He lived too far to do it all by bike but now he rides the train with his folder, opens it up and rides the last few miles. I feel like I made a difference. hah
