So far Bike to Work week for me has been a complete Fail. Monday, I worked from home unexpectedly as the daughters had candy launcher projects that needed to be taken to school. They were too big to fit in the huge wagon, and The Wife didn't want to drive them to school with a catapult strapped to the roof of the wagon. I didn't mind so much. Tuesday, it was raining. Today was my Dad's retirement party, and I knew I wouldn't have time to get cleaned up and changed so I opted to drive.
But there's still tomorrow. I'm leading a convoy yet again from Minnehaha to the Government Plaza festival. Though when I check the Bike/Walk to Work site, I don't see my route listed for some reason. Which means it will be another low turnout year. But I don't mind.
I was excited to see that there is a new bike sharing kiosk that was installed this weekend near my building. Actually, on the sidewalk that abuts my building. They couldn't make things more convenient for me if they tried. Hopefully the bike program will take off.
For those who want to know, the details of tomorrow's ride are:
Gathering at Sea Salt, Minnehaha Park Pavilion at 6:30am
Departing at 6:45am
Stops:?
Arriving at Government Center 7:30am
Route: Minnehaha Ave to Greenway. Greenway to Park Ave. Park to Gov Center
I'll be wearing my bright orange shirt. Give a wave or a hello if you see me tomorrow. Cheers!

Bleah, me too - i rode Monday & Wednesday and drove again today with torrential rain on the way + post-work errands.
It does seem we get crappy weather all too often for bike to work week, even when it's later than usual. I rode today but only to the seminar I've been attending so never made it out your way.
