the future is arriving by bicycle

Hilary biked to work today!

Eight miles - uphill.

Her goal is to make this a monthly happening. Maybe more… You gotta start somewhere…

When are YOU going to ride?

That is truly awesome! I have friends who bike to work and see people everyday on my way to work doing it. It is very inspriational for me when I hear/see this. It is 14 miles across LA for me to get to work. Maybe that should be a goal of mine for 2010!

Congrats Hilary!!

Nothing better than saving cash and getting into shape at the same time.

That sounds like a great goal to shoot for, Jaymes. Hilary and I have done a lot of shorter rides around town over the last couple years leading up to this to get really comfortable with the bike.

You probably know that you can take your bike on the light rail (Gold Line, Red Line, Blue Line, etc.) That might help to shorten the 14 miles of your commute. Good luck…

Thanks for the encouragement guys!

I was in your neck of the woods when I went to the U2 concert at the Rose Bowl the other day. You live in a cool town.
