Friday, May 17th is “National Bike to Work Day”, but WABI has declared it “Burien Bike Day”. We want to encourage local folks to choose pedal-power not just for their commuting when possible, but also for fun and exercise.
In support of the Bike To Work Day event that will be held throughout the Puget Sound region, a Bike Commuter Support Station will be located at Burien Town Square. Whether commuting by bike or just toodling around town, the Commuter Support Station will offer Burien cyclists coffee and snacks, cool giveaways, and a gathering place for cyclists from Burien neighborhoods. The Station will also have the mechanical pros from Bicycles West, and experienced bike commuters on hand to discuss routes and safety, and to answer your cycling questions.
Bike Commuter Support Station
Friday, May 17th, 6:00 a.m. – 9:00 a.m.
Burien Town Square
Many thanks to the sponsors including the City of Burien, and Bicycles West.
