Bike to Work Week is back!  This year, Bike to Work Week runs from May 30 to June 5, 2011.

Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or a shy newbie, you only have to try it a few times to experience the benefits of cycling to work. It's good for your health, saves you money and reduces GHG emissions.

With one-third of all work trips in Metro Vancouver being less than five kilometres and the average person cycling 10 km in 30 minutes, this is a great chance to 'give it a go'.

Between May 30 and June 5, be sure to check out one of the many commuter stations around town. There’ll you’ll find free snacks, drinks and coffee, plus you can get your bike tuned up for free by helpful onsite bike mechanics and enter to win fabulous prizes.  

TravelSmart is proud to support the 5th year of this terrific event that promotes cycling to work – one of the many smart travel options.

    Stay safe bike peoples! Some truly terrible driving out there this morning. Sore heads after a sunny Sunday perhaps.
