Bike to Work Week

Finally going to get some pics uploaded from a fun winter project. I helped a local group of committed bicycle riders plan the first official "Bike to Work Week" in Bismarck. They met in the evenings and due to my work schedule I wasn't able to attend many meetings, but through the magic of email, I kept in touch with them. When they were in need of a poster design for the flyers, brochures, etc. I offered to help.

It was a success and we all were asked to get our photo taken with Governor Hoeven and his Secretary of Ag Roger Johnson.

As we were waiting for the photographers to get set up, one of the guys asked the governor if he biked to work (his residence is less than a block away from the capital). He laughed and said he'd make it faster if he picked up the bike and carried it to work.

I ride with girl behind me in red - Marian. She is going to join me on Candisc this summer. The other person I collaborated with most was a scientist working for the Ag Research Center - Mark - he is in the tan shirt behind the governor and in front of the ND Flag.
