Colorado Bike to Work Day!
It's not a big deal if you commute every/most days to work anyway, but I was wondering who rode to work today.

Me but I do it pretty much every day.
I almost did not since I am having huge issues with my eyes. Instead I rode without my contacts.
Not a heck of a lot of people compared to normal. However, I ride in a bit early.

I noticed a lot more people on bikes up here in Fort Collins today. Hopefully, a few of them will keep doing it everyday.

Me too just about every day. Amateur hour! Stopped by the 9News, REI and Denver Athletic Club breakfast stops. Got my water bottle & 15% coupon at the REI stop. Must have been 150 people there at 7am. Way more than the previous 3 years I've been going.
95% of them won't ride tomorrow or any other day until next year's BTWD. Unfortunate, because it's obvious people who rode today could do it every day. Well, after they get some decent riding clothes.
Thanks to LARABAR for the yummy treats! Starbucks for the coffee!

oh god, i caught a bug last night and stayed home from work today, making thie the first day of the year i HAVENT bike commuted to work.
i did take the kiddo to day camp though and we stopped by whole foods for the commuter breakfast, and i was pleasantly surprised how many folks turned up, despite the drizzly cold weather.
if anyone else was at the breakfast, i was the guy being followed around by the kid on the mini trek 1000.
he got a lot of looks and way-to-go's for his mini-roadbike. hes really proud.
