St. Louis bicycle commuter Kyle Oberle profiled

Tuesday, May 13, 2008

Just in time for Bike to Work Day, the St. Louis Suburban Journals have profiled bicycle commuter Kyle Oberle, who works for TrailNet:

Q: What do you find most rewarding about biking all over?

A: It's the whole picture - better for the environment and my health, keeps the streets free from another car and my pocketbook free from my gas tank, makes me more aware of my surrounding and it's really just a lot more fun than hopping into the car. . . .

Bike commuters are invited to join The Great Rivers Greenway District, the YMCA of Greater St. Louis and Trailnet for breakfast at 20 Refueling Stations throughout the region. Breakfast will be served 6:30 - 9:00 a.m. For more information on locations of stations, visit http://trailnet.org/m_latest.php#may and click on "read more" under "May is National Bike Month" and click on the "Bike to Work Day" flier.

BTW, CBS is news is doing a story on Bike to Work Day (May 16th) and filming one of TrailNet's Bike to Work Day refueling stations in Forest Park.

We are hoping for a good crowd so please forward this to your friends and fellow cyclists. Don't Forget: 6:00 AM, Friday, May 16 at the Missouri History Museum Refueling Station.
