If you're interested in experimenting with a two wheel commute, let me remind you that in the Bay Area, and elsewhere around the country, Thursday, May 14 is Bike to Work Day.
If you can't ride the whole way you can try to bike part of your commute — because something is better than nothing for both you and the environment. In many other cities, Bike to Work Day is Friday — check the League of American Cyclists for listing of events by state. Regardless, be sure to check in with your local bike coalition since chances are high they will have watering stations set up for cyclists and many offer goody bags for pedaling commuters. Will you be biking to work soon?
Tomorrow Is Bike to Work Day!

Well, I'm actually off work tomorrow, but I'll bike to the store when I run over there. I wish I could bike to work, but that is just not a possibility for me...a 30 mile bike ride each way would take a REALLY long time.
1I already do bike to work pretty often.
2I'm telecommuting tomorrow. So no commute for me.
3ugh..i wish i didn't work 35 miles away from home, i would participate! i would probably do it more than once a year too!
4If only I knew how to ride a bike
5I've biked to work every day this week! I looooove riding my bike -- much better than sitting in traffic on the expressway. =)
6I bike to college every day in all weather conditions. I just wear skiing trousers on top of my jeans in the winter
7And Tadow, it's never too late to learn cycling. I injured myself as a toddler and haven't picked up the courage to (learn to) start cycling again until I was 16, but I got back into it and I think I'm pretty good.
I have seen about 25 bicyclists on the road today. I drove to my parents house and biked to work from there. I miss biking.
8I want a bike.
