According to Stanford’s Bicycle Program Coordinator ARIADNE SCOTT, 1,324 bicyclists breezed by or checked in at one of the campus energizer stations on Bike to Work Day, Thursday, May 13 – a 50 percent increase in riders compared to 2009. There were nine energizer stations, including one at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.
As of Friday morning, 450 bicyclists had pledged to wear a helmet for every ride and follow the rules of the road all the time.
It’s not too late: Bicyclists who pledge through the month of May will have their names entered into a drawing to win a free bike, bike helmet or bike light. Visit https://transportation.stanford.edu/bikesafetypledge/.
