Bike to Work

So, that’s another year in the books, this evening’s wrap up party at The Broken Spoke was a great success, with a big turnout and many stories of bike commuting this past week, through glorious sunshine, wind and rainstorms.

What a fantastic end to the work week, the sun was shining and the weather was warm enough to convince even the occasional commuter that it was better to go by bike this morning.

Thursday morning and Cumberland along with the rest of the Comox Valley was calm, bright and dry

Wednesday morning had us thinking it was November rather than June at the Celebration Station outside the iHos Gallery

but the wet windy weather wasn’t a deterrent to the 29 commuters who either sped by, or slowed down to grab a snack and laugh about the rain!

Tuesday morning started a lot warmer, drier and generally more Spring like which was a relief to the large numbers of folks riding to work at CFB Comox today.

Bike To Work Week 2010 got off to a slightly soggy start this morning, but it wasn’t enough to dampen enthusiasm outside the iHos Gallery in Comox
