Bike Month Came Early

Look who I bumped into on my way into work this morning: Transportation Alternatives volunteers giving out coffee, cookies, applies, and new bike maps on the Manhattan side of the Manhattan Bridge.  I had completely forgotten that this was happening, so when I came around the bend of the bike path and saw them it made an already fantastic morning commute even better.  It got me very excited for Bike Month, which officially begins on Sunday.

By the way, if there’s a coffee cup index for ridership levels in New York, someone needs to alert the news media.  There were so many riders using the Manhattan Bridge today that I think the volunteers ran out of cups shortly after I left.
