If you were wondering why there were four times as many cyclists on the paths this morning, and a surprising lack of car traffic, it’s because June 25th is Bike To Work Day.

It was good to see many of you at our table in Civic Center Park.  I hope you got a chance to rub elbows with the mayor, the governor, or the director of public works.  If you happen to see any of them  in person, do us a favor and tell them how much you love the new Sharrows, and how the town would be perfect if they’d only paint them on such and such street.  These first sharrows took a long time to get approved and painted, let’s keep the momentum up.

Thanks to everyone for buying up all the new 2008 DBTC maps we had on hand, I know we ran out, so if you want to buy one, place your orders here, and we’ll mail them out this week.

Have fun riding out there today, and if you are frustrated by the new people who don’t know the ropes yet, please take the opportunity to help these nascent bike commuters ride safely and efficiently on our roads and bikepaths.  Happy Riding.
