At Shift Cycle Wear, we would like to show
our support for the Bike to Work Day.
Bike to Work Day is an event observed
nationwide on the third Friday of May. This year it happened to fall on May 17th.
This event is all about using bicycles as commuting choices. All over the USA,
organizations and businesses showed their support for Bike to Work day in
different ways. Restaurants offered breakfast; and free snacks and coffee to
cyclists, the southern California commuter rail network, Metrolink provided
cyclists free train rides, and bicycle shops offered free balaclavas and cycle
tune-ups. Some organizations even gave away free bikes.
Cycling to work is a great way to keep fit
and is even better for the environment. Think of all the pollution we would be
avoiding if more of us cycled to and from work as opposed to driving around
every day. If you’re thinking--“Hey! I use public transport.” Let us tell you
that almost all forms of public transport also use fossil fuels. So take the
bike to work. It’s good for you and the environment.
Drop in on us at www.shiftcyclewear.com and pick out
some great jerseys and other cycle wear. They combine comfort and style and a
great way to show off your support for the environment.
