In honor of Ride to Work Week, which I am missing by not being at work and thus not riding there, I present up the new Metro Transit Bike 2 Benefits program. Commit to biking to work or transit once a week for 8 weeks before year-end, and they’ll give you a nice bike map, a personalized commuting route, and a reflective ankle strap.
They’ll also enter you for faboo prizes. If you commute more than the 8 times/8 weeks, there’s apparently more benefits available, but Metro Transit is vague.
