Today was Bike To Work Day. I was helping out at the Issaquah checkpoint over by Lake Sammamish State Park. Nobody had any major mechanical problems, but I did get to patch one slow leaking inner tube and air up a couple of low tires.
I had to leave around 9:00 AM to go to work, but by then we'd already had over 120 riders pass through our checkpoint. We don't have any firm numbers, but I'd guess there are at least several hundred other bike commuters in Issaquah whose routes don't intersect our checkpoint. But we did get to equip several hundred happy riders with coffee, bananas and Clif Bars.
Nice photo :)It's nice that the event was a success.
