2008 Bike to Work Day - May 16
Join hundreds of bicycle commuters to celebrate Bike to Work Day on Friday, May 16, 2008, from 6:30 to 9:00 a.m. at the Reston Town Center. Each year since 2002, cyclists have gathered at the Town Center for a free breakfast, raffles of bike-related prizes, and bicycling information tables. Pre-registered riders also get a free t-shirt. Hunter Mill Supervisor Cathy Hudgins will greet the riders at 8 a.m.
Last year 320 cyclists attended the event. Based on a survey of those cyclists, the average distance of their commute was 10 miles and it only took 20 minutes more by bike than by car. A round trip could save about $3 in gas and eliminate approximately 20 pounds of CO2 emissions.
Why not go green and bike to work this year. Reston Bike to Work Day is organized by the Reston Town Center Association, Fairfax County, Reston Association, Reston Bike Club, Friends of the W&OD Trail, and Fairfax Advocates for Better Bicycling.
