Event aims to encourage people to experiment with bicycle commuting to help fight climate change
Bike-to-Work Day returns to San Diego on Thursday after a two-year hiatus during the pandemic.
Riding a bike to work can also be part of a commute that also includes either a bus, trolley, ferry or walking. Most buses and trolleys allow commuters to bring bikes on board. San Diego officials say bicycling in San Diego increased 37 percent between 2019 and 2020, but that is partly because of pandemic-prompted lifestyle changes.Councilmember Raul Campillo said Tuesday that he plans to ride more than three miles Thursday to a meeting of the Mission Trails Regional Task Force.
“The idea is to get more people to recognize that it’s not just something that can be fun, but it can be turning our commute into something that can be fun and active,” he said.
