Ride to Work (every)Day.

September 30th, 2008

‘National Ride To Work Day’ is an event that encourages people to cycle to work. Considering the parlous state of the environment and peak hour crowding on Melbourne’s  public transport and roads, this prospect is becoming more and more attractive. In support of this important event, Commuter Cycles is providing breakfast for all those who will be dusting off the the treadly and braving Melbourne’s streets. ride-to-work.jpg

For anyone who commutes by bicycle everyday – we already think you’re wonderful – this event is for you too!

We’re offering espresso coffee (we’re getting a barista and machine in for the day) fresh fruit, and bacon & egg sandwiches. We’ll also have all our bike mechanics on hand, who will be offering free tune ups on your bike.

All we ask from you is a gold coin donation, and that you register for Ride To Work Day.

Registering is important as it lets the bean counters know that cycling to work is a popular and viable alternative to other forms of transport. Who knows, we might even get a few more bike paths as a result!
