Today was Bike to Work Day, and there was a pretty good turnout here in Seattle. I stopped at two stations during my commute: the Speedy-Reedy station at 34th and the B.G. reported just over 400 bicycle commuters as of 8:00ish and the Recycled Cycles station at Rainier Vista and the B.G. (south end of the UW campus) reported 550 bicycle commuters!
Unfortunately the weather was a bit uncooperative, and although it wasn't actually raining, the gloomy skies and relatively cool temperature may have disuaded some folks from taking the plunge. But a lot of folks were out, and it's always heartening to see the future out there on the roads and bike paths.
