Today is National Bike to Work Day.
There is a big contingent that will two-wheel it to the courthouse in Media. They are due to arrive at Front and Olive streets at 8:30 a.m. and will be able to get all kinds of goodies like free refreshments, giveaways, bike trail maps and safety info, and even instruction on how to mount their bikes on SEPTA buses.
Bicycling commuters and residents, along with a sprinkling of local celebs, business owners, and fitness enthusiasts will come together for the 14th Annual Bike to Work Day in the county.
The event is hosted by the Delaware County Transportation Management Association (DCTMA) and the Delaware County Planning Department.
If you're biking, you can also score some light breakfast treats and refreshments, dozens of raffle prizes, freegiveaways, and more.
New this year - an out-of-service SEPTA bus will be on location for live demonstrations on 'how to' mount a bike on the front of the vehicle!
The 2015 Bike to Work Day is sponsored by Boeing and Franklin Mint Federal Credit Union.
It's kind of early for us night owl journalists to be out and about. I'm the only lunatic who gets in there at this hour.
If you're taking part in the ride, let us know.
Send me a photo of you and your group and I will post it to DelcoTimes.com.
Send it to editor@delcotimes.com and include information on who is in the photo and where it was taken.
Couldn't ask for a nicer morning for a bike ride.
Me? Uh, my commute would be a tad far for a bicycle.
