Bike to Work Day May 19

B.I.K.E.S. Club is sponsoring the Bike to Work Day Celebration Station at McCollum Park near Mill Creek. We need volunteers to staff that station (and others) from 5:30 a.m. set-up to 9 a.m. close.

Also, plan now to participate in the Bike Commute Challenge. Either form a team of 4-10 at your workplace or, we can form a B.I.K.E.S. Club team of members riding to different workplaces. The goal is five bike commutes in five weeks. Easy, huh?

The official Snohomish County Bike to Work website will be up in mid-April.
Visit www.communitytransit.org/go2/biketowork. Call Kristin for information at 425-348-2369.
