Thursday, May 17 marks the San Francisco Bay Area’s 13th annual Bike to Work Day.
Presented by 511 and Webcor Builders, BTWD promotes bicycling as a healthy, fun, and viable form of transportation. From new or leisure cyclists to bicycle hot-shots, we want to honor every kind of bicyclist out there during May, which is National Bike Month. In addition to the day’s events we are hosting two additional activities to honor cyclists. The Team Bike Challenge where teams compete to see who can travel the most days by bicycle during the month of May. The team with the most points wins a grand prize. The Bike Commuter of the Year Award honors a resident from each county who is committed to making every day a “Bike to Work Day”. This person epitomizes and actualizes the health, environmental, social, and economic benefits of bicycling. Enter to win on Bike to Work Day! Visit 511.org for raffle prizes and other bike related information. Shift gears! Hop on your bike and go! See Bike To work Day
