I've been commuting across the Yolo Causeway from Davis to W. Sacramento for the last 3 years, and every single day for the last year and a half. 12-14 miles each way.
I keep my bike in the room where I teach first grade.
I think it's very important for kids to see grownups who don't drive cars everywhere they go.
What I find most interesting are the questions kids ask about my bike ...
Why do you have two water bottles?
How come your tires are so skinny?
Why is my name on your wheel? (asked by Alex)
Why is my name on the back of your seat? (asked by Brook)
Why do you have such tiny pedals?
Is your bike your car?
