Bike to Work Day 2016

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
Coastside Buzz’s Michelle Dragony doing her part for the environment and health!

The San Francisco Bay Area’s 22st annual Bike to Work Day is today, May 12, 2016 and will see 9 Bay Area counties helping themselves and the environment by bicycling to work as part of National Bike Month.

Did you know that more than 1 million Bay Area residents live within 5 miles of their workplaces, an ideal distance for bicycling?

On average, bicycle commuters lose 13 pounds in their first year of cycling alone. And compared to using a car it hugely reduces your carbon footprint. So there’s lots of reasons to get on your bike – it’s cheaper than driving, free (unlike the gym), and you don’t have to sit in traffic!
