Biking to work is a good thing. And not just this week.

This week is National Bike to Work Week, a good time to remind yourself why biking to work is an excellent alternative to driving. For many people, distance and safety make biking to work challenging, maybe even impossible. But you probably can replace at least some car trips with biking or walking.
