Ride to Work Day Approaches

The title says it all. Roadracingworld.com has an article about International Ride to Work Day, which is set for next Monday, the 15th of June. Follow the link above for the article; I can't give any snippets as a teaser due to copyright, but rest assured it is a good read.

For those of us who commute daily on our motorcycles, the day doesn't make a difference. However, when enough people who don't normally ride during the week are on the road, the increased presence of two-wheeled traffic benefits all of us by increasing awareness of just how many of us there are. So, for the purely selfish reason of hoping this one day will help encourage drivers to be on the lookout for riders like me, I encourage every rider out there to take next Monday as a day to ride to work.
