This is Tim leaving for work this morning at 6:30. Weather permitting, he rides his bike to the office instead of driving. For safety purposes, part of his gear includes several blinking lights - one on the stem, one on the back of the helmet, one on the back of the satchel and one on the back fender. He thinks he probably looks like a Christmas tree riding down the street, but that's the whole idea. Drivers are more likely to see this illuminated cyclist and share the road as is required by NC law. Some may think he does this to save on the high cost of gas. While this may be a good reason, he really rides his bike simply because he enjoys it so much. Plus, it's good exercise.

I think it's fantastic that Tim is able to ride his bike to work.
Know what he means by just enjoying doing it. I love bike riding and wish I could have ridden mine to work.
