UNDATED - Keep your car parked in your garage and grab your bike.  This is National Bike to Work Week.

Organizers of the event say you should be sure to wear a helmet, covered shoes, and pants that are not too loose around the legs.  They advise you to ride at a steady pace, so you arrive at work clean and fresh.  If you're looking for a workout, you can push yourself on your way home.  Remember to signal turns and stops.

And speaking of biking, there's an event happening this Saturday called "The River Ride".  The 10-mile ride starts at 8:00 a.m., and the three-mile ride starts at 9:30 a.m.  The cost is $5 for individuals, and $10 for families.

Register by calling 253-2664.
