Let's Get Off Our Asses

On May 1, the I Bike PHL Challenge begins. (First step: Get a bike.) For the whole summer you track the miles you ride—alone or in a team of up to 10—and log your stats online or via smartphone. It's part of the National Bike Challenge, and naturally, the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia is appealing to our ingrained parochialism by encouraging us to best everyone else in the state and country. Yeah, that works. [Bicycle Coalition]
