Bike to Work Day on Friday, May 20. Once again, it is being organized at the regional level by Commuter Connections and the Washington Area Bicyclist Association.

The annual event is intended to increase awareness and participation in bicycling as a method of transportation to work instead of driving alone.

The first 15,000 to register for Bike to Work Day and stop at one of the many pit stops in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, will receive a free T-shirt and refreshments.

You can register for the event by clicking this link.
