May is National Bike Month
Posted by Preferred Benefits on May 6, 2008
After three weeks of discussing health care reform, we’ll break from the cerebral and talk about something a little lighter. But, we hope you checked out the blogs on health care reform, because it’s certainly a hot topic and we should all be informed about the facts.
May is National Bike Month, and the week of May 12-16 is designated as Bike-to-Work Week with Friday the 16th being Bike-to-Work Day. (It seems like it would be easier if they would just suggest you bike to work the whole month, but then again who would do that?)
The League of American Bicyclists promotes these awareness efforts. They suggest that people ride bicycles for exercise, to save fuel costs (who can’t appreciate that right now?), escape traffic, help the environment and to have fun. Those all sound good to us. For more information on why people choose to ride bikes, have a look at their web site.
And under the category of something we’ve learned through this blogging process, apparently Louisville has a pretty active cycling community. For information on bicycling in Louisville, go to www.louisvilleky.gov/BikeLouisville. At that site you will find information from bicycle laws and safety to local organizations and bike shops. Also watch for news on that site about bicycling events to coincide with National Bike Month.
We’re curious about how many of you bicycle regularly. If you know of any great parks or trails for biking or have other stories, post a comment.
