As Metblogs helpfully reminds us, today's Drive Your Bike to Work Day, a time to air out the pedals and carry our bikes out blinking into the light of day. Roof-racks ahoy! If you don't own a car, don't worry -- you can bring your bike to the carpool. Or if that's not going to work, now's an excellent time to purchase a motor vehicle. Or five! See you on the freeways, bike-owners.

Oh, and also, there's some event on Thursday, too -- something about "bike" and "work" and "to." It doesn't involve combustion engines, so we don't see how it could possibly be important.
