BIKE TO WORK!
Enjoy FREE pancakes, friends, music, and commuting to work!
Our FREE pancake breakfast on National Bike to Work Day will take place at Riverscape MetroPark's Bike Hub on May 17, 2013.
Last year, over 500 commuters joined us for tasty pancakes, friends and music. Their efforts contributed to a total of 5,267 miles traveled by bike on their way to and from work. At 25 miles per gallon fuel efficiency, that is 211 gallons of gas saved from consumption. In addition, the recycling and composting efforts at the event drastically reduced our carbon footprint.
