May is Bike To Work Month. June 22nd happened to be Bike to Work Day in Colorado. We've been volunteering lots lately and signed up to help run a breakfast station here in Arvada. Fun was had by all.
We arrived at the station off the Ralston Creek Trail near Balsam shortly after 6:30 this morning. (Hey, I'm on vacation...I'm surprised it wasn't later. ;-) ) Anne and Sandy had various muffins, bagels, fruit and yummy snacks ready to go. The typical set up is under a pavilion at the park, but they lose a lot of riders who pass it up on the trail. This year they decided to set up a satellite table with breakfast at the trail converge. Chris and I were to man that.
The turn out was good. We probably had about 40 riders stop by. Passed out lots of Bike Arvada cards and talked it up. All was good.
Speaking of volunteering, we helped at the 1st Aid Station for the Denver Century a couple weekends ago and helped out at the booth for ACT at the Rocky Mountain Bike Festival. We've really tried to involve ourselves in the cycling community. Everyone has been so amazing and we have had tons of fun. Oh and we've gotten to ride our bikes!
