Want to save money on gas, lose weight and reduce stress? This is Bike Month and Friday is Whatcom County’s 11th annual Bike to Work and School Day (details at every bodybike.com).

Bicycling gives us healthy physical activity while we’re getting where we’re going. My patients have lost hundreds of pounds and controlled their diabetes, blood pressure and cholesterol by cycling. More bicycling means less cars, traffic, noise, air/water pollution and safer neighborhoods. More people on bikes means more road space and parking for those who do choose to drive.

Join us; the more people walking, bicycling and busing, the safer and healthier the community will be for all of us.
