BikeFriday is in 2 days! I bet you're excited. :)
Here's a couple tips to make BikeFriday more meaningful to you:
1. Start a BikePool. Get people going the same way as you to ride as a group. It's fun and cars will drive more carefully around you. I'll publicize your route and time on the BikeFriday site to help your BikePool get exposure.
2. Do you own BikeFriday thing - I work at a smallish company (around 250 people), with 2-12 bike-commuters (2 in the winter, 12 in the summer) - so to encourage my co-workers to bike in to work this Friday, I emailed them all to let them know of what was going on, plus offered my own BikeFriday thing to them:
Use your own creativity and ideas to help the people you know to adopt cycling as an everyday mode of transportation. Let me know about it, and I'll post about it on an "Idea" section of the site - helping others think of ideas themselves!The weather is beautiful now. While people asked me if I was crazy for biking to work in the winter time, now it’s time to ask if you’re crazy because you’re NOT biking to work. :)
I’m doing a [workname] BikeFriday thing too – for the cyclists here. If you ride your bike to work on Friday, I’ll buy you a coffee/tea/juice of your choice from Tim Hortons!!
