Bike to Work Day is coming this Thursday, Ma y 11, 2017! Join in on the fun as the Bay Area rides to work together on bikes as part of National Bike Month in May. Biking is a great way to avoid traffic congestion, get exercise, save money and just plain have fun! Although these events are only during May, consider biking the rest of the year as an option to supplement or replace some driving trips.
In order to help fuel your journey, there are energizer stations May 11 from approximately 7 a.m. until 9 a.m. throughout the Bay Area. These stations are generously sponsored by local cities and businesses and have tote bags, water, snacks and other fun goodies! Here are the local energizer stations in Menlo Park:
