Bike to work week

This past week has been the "official" bike to work week for the state of Colorado. Wednesday being the "official" day of all days. I managed to to ride in on monday, wednesday and today, the other days missed because of school restraints. I have biked to work in the past but not this frequently. What I have come to find is that I enjoy it a lot. It makes my commute time my work out time so I have more time to do other things and I plan to keep this up on the days that I don't have school.

I don't typically have crunchy thoughts....well occasionally I do but.....I was thinking on my ride home on Wednesday how crazy it would be if a quarter of the population of the Denver metro area rode bikes to work. There would be a designated bike lane on the highway, people would definitely be more healthy....and it would be pretty cool too. I would say not even 5 percent of the population biked to work on Wednesday. Yeah...pretty crunchy but it was something to think about on my way home.
