In conjunction with the <a href=\"http:\/\/la-bike.org\" target=\"_blank\">Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition<\/a>, and as a &#8220;recreational&#8221; adjunct to <a href=\"http:\/\/la-bike.org\/bike-to-work-day\/bike-to-work-day.html\" target=\"_blank\">Bike to Work Week<\/a>, we&#8217;d like to see people ride their bike TO THE TRAILS.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of loading up your car, driving to a local trailhead, unloading, suiting up. At least once during Bike to Work Week (and the weekends before and after, since this is recreational), try riding&#8211;your bike, public transit, even car-pooling&#8211;from home directly to the trailhead. Pedal out of your driveway.<\/p>\n<p>The RideToTHeTrails.org web site is under construction. You&#8217;ll be able to post your rides to the trail and be eligible to win prizes kindly donated by The North Face\/Planet Explore, REI, KHS, and others. Let us know your zip code and the trail to which you ride, how you got there (all pedalling, transit, or other).<\/p>\n<p>At the beginning of May we&#8217;ll be sending out reminders to people to join in and Ride to the Trails. Now go ride a bike and enjoy Earth Day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Earth Day!
