Tomorrow, May 18th, over 10,000 Metro area commuters will ditch their cars and bike to work for DC’s annual Bike to Work Day. Bike to Work Day is part of a national movement to get cars off the road and provide a healthy and safe alternative for commuters. Not only is biking good for your health, but by not driving to work you are reducing carbon emissions and helping the environment, something that is especially important to us here at EYA.
