[DVBC] Bike to Work Day-Philadelphia

[Ira Josephs]

Hi Jan
Sounds like a great event. I don't know about Philly but it rained again and 
we had a light turnout in Media. There were lots of good food, freebies and 
prizes and all attendees (and organizers) seemed to enjoy themselves.
Take care
Ira

How was bike to work day up there folks???
It was gorgeous weather in Washington DC--where more than 6,200 cyclists
were registered for the event (amazing what the offer of a free t-shirt
will do!) Freedom plaza, just down the street from the White House, was
packed!!  Several legislators and a mayoral candidate were on hand to talk
up planned legislation and promote themselves...
Hope it was just as good in Media and Philly...
I miss all you folks...

remember there is always a standing invitation for a tour of the capital
anytime...
I've become a pretty good tour guide,
though Dom and Doug might argue that I've become a little daring in my
city cycling, I'm really pretty conservative compared to most bike
commuters, you haven't seen anything till you see some of the bike
messangers on their track bikes sprint across several lanes of traffic on
a red light!
DC is always an adventure!
