Bike to Work Week was pushed back a month this year from mid-May to mid-June in hopes that Wisconsin weather would be more accommodating to car-less commuting the closer we got to the solstice.

Well, it's not exactly summer-like just yet, but perhaps that's all the more reason to hop on the bike and get your blood flowing. It's Bike to Work Week (BTWW) in Milwaukee and aside from saving a few bucks on gas and gaining a little muscle in the calves, there are plenty of reasons to keep the car in park this week.
