Monday is "National Ride To Work Day".
I've been contemplating whether or not to say anything about this here on FOC-U, but I just can't hold it in anymore.
I work for a well known bike accessories company, and on Friday a number of internal e-mails bounced around.
"Please would anyone who has a bike come in on it on Monday, so we can take some photos to show how we're supporting the industry" - from one executive who doesn't even own a motorcycle.
"I'm up for a lift in on the back of a bike if anyone's willing" from a manager who also doesn't ride motorcycles.
There's maybe six people who work there that own bikes and ride regularly. No one else is even particularly interested in bikes.
Well, I've been "supporting the bike industry" for over 30 years now, rarely owned cars, and don't need some stuck-up management types telling me when I should be riding one.
D'ya think I should go in by car just to piss them off?
