Re: Ride to work day.

["Guy Patterson" <guyspat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Stuart, I also did my part here in Central PA.  However, I saw one bike in
my 40 mile commute this morning and two Goldwings with trailers on the way
home.  On most fair weather Friday's the roads around here I filled with
bikes.  I originally believe that the lousy weather today (I.e. mid 60s and
showers) put people off, but I think it is a general lack of interest.

Cheers!
