Late Spring is the start of the ground-level ozone season, when we hear about Code Red and Orange Ozone Action Days. On those days, the air is dangerous to breathe \u2013 especially for the young and for the elderly. Emissions from single occupancy vehicles contribute significantly to our region&#8217;s dangerous ozone levels. Bike commuting can improve the air we breathe.<\/p>\n<p>Stay up-to-date with Bike to Work Day and other great bike events from around the Baltimore region through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baltometro.org\/bicycle\/bikeped-beacon-e-newsletter\">BikePed Beacon E-Newsletter<\/a>&nbsp;<span style=\"line-height: 1.3em;\">or follow us on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Bike2WorkCentralMD\" style=\"line-height: 1.3em;\">Facebook<\/a><span style=\"line-height: 1.3em;\"> or follow us on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bike2workcentmd\" style=\"line-height: 1.3em;\">Twitter<\/a><span style=\"line-height: 1.3em;\"> !&nbsp;Sign-up today!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium; color: #00466e;\"><strong>Learn more&#8230;<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Get ready for this year&#8217;s Bike to Work Day!

Late Spring is the start of the ground-level ozone season, when we hear about Code Red and Orange Ozone Action Days. On those days, the air is dangerous to breathe \u2013 especially for the young and for the elderly. Emissions from single occupancy vehicles contribute significantly to our region&#8217;s dangerous ozone levels. Bike commuting can improve the air we breathe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family: arial;\">Stay up-to-date with Bike to Work Day and other great bike events from around the Baltimore region through the Bike Ped Beacon e-newsletter, or follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Bike-to-Work-Central-Maryland\/55394959050\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baltometro.org\/bicycle\/bike-to-work-day-2#!\/Bike2WorkCentMD\">Twitter<\/a>!&nbsp; Sign-up today!<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family: arial;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family: arial;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span class=\"blueSubHead\" style=\"color: #000000;\">Learn more&#8230;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"font-family: arial;\">\n<li>Get ready for this year&#8217;s Bike to Work Day! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baltometro.org\/commuter-options\/bicycle\">Check out our extensive bicycle section<\/a> for information on commuting by bike, bicycle safety, bike maintenance, and more!
