By Jonathan Keller The work of countless volunteers will come to fruition as all nine Bay Area counties host commuters on bikes. Signing up as a participant in Bike to Work Day not only helps event coordinators measure participation in the event, it also means you’ll be eligible for the chance to win a bike or other prizes. No spandex is required — it’s perfectly fine to bicycle in business attire. So break out that old cruiser, pump up the tires, go to 511.org
