Celebrate Bike to Work Day on May 16

Bike to Work Day is focused on getting people to trade their vehicle for a bike for their commute to work. Not only is biking a mode of transportation that is better for the environment, our health, and our wallets, it also helps to reduce traffic congestion on our roads and freeways.
