Bike to Work Week!
Lauren, Our eternal quest for Platinum Status, imminent death of car-based culture, opportunity knocks, upcoming bicycle related events April 1st, 2010
In case anyone doesn’t know this yet, next week is Bike 2 Work Week in Tucson. What this boils down to, at a minimum, is free breakfast all week for most of my readership. Plus a whole lot of other stuff if you care to check it out!
This used to be the one week in the year when Lauren would commute to my office by bike. She only did it so she could get her free breakfast at the public library.
The rest of the year she walked to work, as she only lived around the corner.

That’s right. I’ll do anything for food. Even ride my bike to work.

Funny how most of the bike week “perks” are given only to those commuters who show up with a foam hat. Looks like the safety nazis have infiltrated bike week. Not that I think that helmets are a *bad* idea particularly – it’s just that, well…

They do perpetuate the popular misconception that safety is more dependant on idiotproofing than awareness and attitude.
