National Bike to Work Day!!!!

Wifey and I had a nice ride in today and managed to observe two of the best reasons to ride.  The first was unexpected....as we rode over I-80 we saw traffic was pretty backed up.  We made it about half way across the bridge when we heard the screech and boom, boom, boom, boom.  Directly under the bridge at least 5 cars and maybe a big rig had the chain reaction fender bender!  We circled back to observe the carnage.

I'll bet these guys wish they rode their bikes to work now.   The mess continued back under the bridge so actually, there were probably about 10 people who might have this sentiment (or perhaps more since traffic will be snarled for an hour). 

We continued on our way and experienced the other best reason to ride today.....Pancakes (compliments of the Reno Bike Project)!

The pancakes, bacon, sausage, and fruit were all very tasty.  Hub coffee washed it all down and off we went (slightly late) to work.  Now that's how you start a Friday!  Hope your day is off to as good a start.
