news Energizer Stations: Bike to Work Day 2018

Thursday, May 10 is Bike to Work Day 2018

Why ride on Bike to Work Day?  In addition to the obvious health benefits, motor vehicle traffic reduction and support for the environment, there are snacks and goodies!  We don’t think any one rider has ever visited all of the MCBC Energizer Stations on Bike to Work Day, but let us know if we’re wrong.

The most popular pit stop along the routes have to be our Energizer Super Stations, where dedicated volunteers and energetic sponsors show up with drinks, breakfast snacks, free offers and bike support on Thursday, May 10, 2018.

Energizer Super Station Locations:

• Golden Gate Bridge: Vista Point at north end of bridge
• Mill Valley: Mill Valley-Sausalito Multi-Use Path
• Larkspur: Larkspur Ferry Connection Pathway Bridge
• San Rafael: SMART Station at Whistlestop
• Fairfax: Sunshine Bicycles

A map with pointers to all confirmed Energizer Stations is posted below. Please use the map to see where your nearest Energizer Station will be. Stations are open 6:30 am to 9:00 am unless otherwise noted.
