bring out your bikes, spruce them up, make them pretty cause tomorrow is bike to work day. i mentioned before that the bay area is busy with various activities dedicated to this cause. one thing that our city coalitions are working on this year is making Bike to Work Day  a welcoming opportunity for even more people living and working in the Bay Area to test-ride the joys of bicycling in our beautiful cities. considering i travel from sf, berkeley, and oakland, i look forward to seeing how each city celebrates this day. with many events showing up, here are some details on the bay area's bike to work day events...
