Bike to Work Day receives a great amount of attention, and deservedly so for bicyclists.
But there also is another two-wheeled, "bike-to-work day," which will be Monday, June 19th.
Perhaps The Post could highlight this as well?
Thanks,

| | | | | | On June nineteenth of this year, the number of motorcycles and scooters on roads and highways will more than double as many riders become two-wheeled commuters to help demonstrate that riding is an efficient, economical form of personal transportation which makes parking easier and helps traffic flow better. This year marks the twenty-fifth annual worldwide event, which involves riders of all ages occupations, and from all walks of life.
"Motorcycles and scooters consume less resources per mile than automobiles, and they take up less space in parking areas and on roads. Riders seek employer support for this efficient form of transportation, and more government and public awareness about ridings many benefits," states Andy Goldfine, the program organizer.
Commuting on this day shows the positive value of motorcycles and scooters for transportation. For hundreds of thousands of workers, motorcycles and scooters are an economical, efficient and socially responsible form of mobility that saves energy, helps the environment and provides a broad range of other public benefits. Motorcycling and scootering clubs around the world encourage their members to ride to work on this annual day. | | |
