You can make any day Bike To Work day! Let us show you how or sign up for the Bike Buddy Program and get a mentor to show you the ropes. We had our traditional "RideYourBike.com" organic bananas from West Seattle Thriftway and many other goodies from Cascade Bicycle Club (bandanas and waterbottles). Shimano supplied free stainless steel coffee mugs!

Enviro-Note: With the exception of some wrappers 100% of the trash was recycled from our station! We used reuseable ceramic cups purchased at the Goodwill for 29 cents each, which we wash and re-use every year. All the banana peels were composted by Aaron & Gypsie's chickens. Starbucks supplied the free coffee!
