Bike To Work Day
San Franciscans love biking and one of the most fun and rewarding days to bike is the annual Bike to Work Day celebration on Thursday, May 10, 2012.
Join the SF Bicycle Coalition and hundreds of thousands of lawyers, nurses, teachers, waiters and others who will be biking to work on this great day.
>> Energizer Stations will be set up in neighborhoods across the city in the morning and afternoon to offer free coffee, snacks and other goodies and mechanics will even check out your bicycle for free (at select locations).
