The City of Long Beach is encouraging employers and residents to participate in Bike to Work Day on Thursday, May 19, 2011. Dry weather is forecast, and special “Pit Stop/Energizing Stations” will help bicyclists along their way.
“I’m an avid fan of bicycles and I just rode my bike to work last week,” said Mayor Bob Foster. “I want to encourage our residents to take advantage of the 270 miles of bicycle infrastructure in Long Beach and be part of Bike to Work Day on Thursday. Riding your bike to work is not only a healthy way for you to get to work, but good for the environment as well.”
