This is the kick start I needed to start riding again. I registered and will be coming from the Palisades.

This is just what I needed to finally get up the nerve to bike to work. (I’m nervous about getting hit by a car as I spent the last 6 years in rural Vermont where I was never worried about biking in traffic)!

First time participating, but I bike to work at least once a week! Sterling to Reston!

This was my first time participating and it was a wonderful experience. I stopped by the Chinn Center and the volunteers were amazing! Not only did they tune up my bike, but they gave me bunch of free goodies and breakfast. Thank you so much for having this event I plan to participate every year.

I moved to DC from rural MA just this week to start a job; bike to work day was just what I needed to get me on my bike and experiencing urban riding. Ride on!
