Biking and Breakfast

random
Friday is Twin Cities Bike/Walk to Work Day. The event tries to encourage new bike commuters by sponsoring organized bikes and walks to downtown Minneapolis and St Paul. From 6:30am – 8:30am there will be a gathering at the north plaza of the Hennepin County Government Center which will include free breakfast. I’m not counting on much more than a granola bar, but a friend of mine and I plan on biking to work and making a stop for breakfast.
On the note of biking, an excerpt from The Downtown Minneapolis Transportation Management Organization:
Based on the recently published 2000 Census Supplemental Survey, Minneapolis is ranked #1 in the country for bicycle commuting with an estimated average of 5,366 people riding to work each day on a bike, 2.63% of commuters.
