Bike to Work Day 2008

Supervisor Hudgins with cyclists at Reston Bike to Work Day 2007

This year Bike to Work Day in Fairfax County and the Washington DC area is on Friday, May 16, 2008. The Washington Area Bicyclists Association, WABA, just posted their Bike to Work Day 2008 page. We expect registration to be open soon. This is a great regional event. Many people who bike for the first time on this day learn the many benefits of riding to work and realize that it takes very little extra effort.

This year there are 6 Fairfax County locations. FABB members plan to be at most of the events with our e-newsletter sign up sheet and bike commuting handouts. There will be free food, drinks, and bike-related raffle items during the morning events. Good resources for information on bike commuting are the Commuter Connections Bicycling Guide for Employees and the Bicycling Guide for Employers, and the League of American Bicyclists Tips for Commuters.
