The Kansas City's Bike to Work Week 2006:
Bike to Work Week is taking off across Missouri. See a list of Bike to Work Week activities across the state here.
Columbia celebrated last week while St. Louis, Farmington, Springfield, St. Joseph, and Kansas City all celebrate the week of May 15th, 2006.
KCStar's Mike Hendricks writes about Next week is national Bike to Work Week, and some towns do it up big.More of Hendricks' article here.
Chicago, for instance. Mayor Richard Daley does more than merely sign a proclamation. He actively promotes the event, and not just for one week either.
Daley’s Bike Chicago campaign covers 100 events spread over five months. It gets bigger every year.
Meanwhile, here in KC, we’re still waiting for Bike to Work Week to take off.
Oh well, maybe 2006 will be the year, thanks to the new person in charge.
