A Good Day To Ride

Friday is Bike To Work Day. Will you be commuting on two wheels?

Will you be riding to work on Friday?  May 20 is Bike to Work Day, and the Washington Area Bicyclist Association (WABA) will be holding special pit stops around the region for free snacks and drinks, bicycle tune ups, and a chance to meet other riders.

The WABA and Fairfax County are hosting the events.  There are 49 pits tops around the region and nine in Fairfax County:

  • Burke VRE Park and Ride Lot
  • Springfield (Metro Park at Walker Lane)
  • (at the intersection of Discovery Street and Market Street)
  • Vienna (at the Vienna Town Green on the W&OD)
  • Fairfax City at Van Dyck Park
  • Fairfax Corner (in the plaza opposite Coastal Flats)
  • Tysons Corner (at Booz Allen Hamilton, 8283 Greensboro Drive)
  • Merrifield (at the intersection of Sandburg Street and the W&OD)
  • Herndon (at the Town Hall Green just off the W&OD)
