Bike to Work Day

Tomorrow is DC's annual Bike to Work day. If you haven't already, register for a free t-shirt and refreshments. There are 100 pit stops across DC to promote healthy commuting which has been shown to decrease overall mortality, mortality from cardiovascular disease, and mortality from cancer. A little endorphin surge can also be a great way to start and end the work day!

Please also be safe if commuting in the rain. WABA has some great recommendations to make riding in inclement weather safer.
