Bike Carson reminds us that May is National Bike Month, and May 11-15 is Bike to Work Week, where you're encouraged to ditch your car if you can and get around town on your bike instead. There are activities all month, but probably the crescendo is on May 15 with the Bike to Work Week Party at the Firkin and Fox.

To mark the end of Bike To Work Week, a little party was put together at the Firkin and Fox tonight. Some dinner, some drinks, and the drums of Anouaze Beat. And of course bicycles. Lots and lot of bicycles.

We went down for dinner, because the food is always good at the Firkin and Fox, and stayed a bit to listen to the music. Ran into a couple of familiar faces, and finally met for the briefest of moments Jeff Moser of BikeCarson.com.

It was a good party atmosphere, and kind of set the mood for Fridays@Third, the summer concert series that takes place on this street. The first of those concerts is on June 6th, and with the Firkin and Fox finally open Fridays@Third should be better than ever.

The Firkin's patio is the perfect place to hold an event like this. Their patio is filled with tables and chairs for the summer, and tonight it was filled with bodies.

Bike to Work Week has begun, with Muscle Powered and Bike Carson leading the charge here in Carson. Bike Carson has a story and pictures on what was kind of a ceremonial "first ride" to kick off the week. News Carson City also has a video with interviews.

At 11 miles it would be quite a haul for me to bike to work. If you live in town you have it a bit easier.
