Bikes are a favorite mode of transportation in Seattle. Even the rain doesn’t seem stop people and, naturally, during the summer, more people switch to bikes. The reasons are various. Some people ride to work, some people work while biking. Others are exercising or performing in a parade. Higher gas prices are an extra motivation this year. How fun and how safe is riding a bike around the city? We will hear experiences and advice from bikers in the next hour, but we also want to hear your stories about riding on your own two wheels.
