Bob's Rules of Bicycling.

Rule 1: If it's a beautiful sunny weekday, call in sick -- and hit the bike trail. Your mind will be thoroughly refreshed, and you'll work much better when you get back to the office the next day.

Rule 2: If it's a cloudy weekday, call in sick -- and hit the bike trail. Cloudy days are 'reflective days' and you'll think more clearly after your ride. Heck, you might even solve that marketing or sales problem everyone else has been struggling with when you get back to the office -- and be awarded a BIG BONUS!

Rule 3: If it's a rainy or snowy weekday, go to work -- and imagine yourself riding on the bike trails. Your day will go much smoother. If you sit in your office chair and pretend to pedal, your co-workers will leave you alone to indulge in your bicycling bliss.


This is a great way to leave office politics behind.

And it's especially effective if you also wear your cycling backpack and helmet.

Rule 4: Please visit our sponsors. They're really a lovely group of people.
