This is the week to grease those axles and tighten the brake cables. Plan a route without too many hills or too much traffic and give yourself ample time to get there as well as locating a convenient, safe place to keep your bike during work hours. Then, do yourself and the planet a favor and ride your bike to work at least one day if not all week. You'll be surprised at the things you've driven by week after week and never noticed, not to mention the calmer attitude you'll bring with you to your desk after a session of moderate exercise. It's like being a kid again, letting your mind drift from daydreams to fantasies to breakthrough, all to the rhythm of your beating heart.
If you can plot your route to pass one of the "energizing stations" set up around the city to encourage bicyclist with free coffee and snacks. The pit stops will be located at Belmont Veterans Memorial Pier, City Hall, and Maxson Plaza on the CSULB campus. I plan to check out the Belmont Pier station even though it's not on my regular route. I want to let those valiant volunteers their work is appreciated.
