As part of the Bike to Work Day festivities on Thursday, May 12, and to celebrate bicycling as a shared experience, consider joining an Oakland District Pedal Pool on your way to work.

“It’s nice to not be in a box.  To feel like we’re people and not machines.” 

T.D. Fisher, Oakland resident and Alameda County Bicycle Commuter of the Year for 2010, bubbles over with enthusiasm for cycling. “I feel happier.  I feel like more is possible.  I feel physically stronger.”
