@cycletowork day encourages two-wheeled commuting

If you need an excuse to get on your bike then next Thursday [12 September] offers one: it is national cycle to work day.
It is hoped that thousands of additional people will leave their cars at home and take to two wheels for their daily commute.
Just one day cant hurt can it?
They have Dame Sarah Story to front the campaign and you can pledge the distance you will ride on the day. Rather neatly, it calculates the cost and carbon savings you'll make and the calories you'll burn - see image.

What is 1,694 calories in pasties?

Anything that encourages people to ride is a good thing in my view - just hope it doesn't rain :)
The cost is just about bob on for public transport but a little bit over the top for petrol cost - unless I was driving an AC Cobra bouncing off the rev limiter in second gear all the way. 
Ride safe.
