bwringer Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) RTW day has been around for a long time, but this year it's on the same day as the new Federal holiday for Juneteenth. (Which fell on Sunday 6/19/22, but is observed on Monday 6/20/22). If your employer follows Federal holidays, as mine does, then there's no work to ride to today... But you can bet I'll be out riding today anyway! It's a new holiday, so adoption varies quite a bit. Eventually I wonder whether they'll have to move Ride to Work day?

Ride365 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Living North of Columbus Ohio and working downtown Columbus, for me riding to work is too much of a chore/stress just trying to stay alive. People are simply absolute distracted self absorbed imbeciles in their cars, I avoid them all like the plague.......commuting to work isn't fun or relaxing on a motorcycle.

roy826 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I still work from home so no ride to work for me any day of the week. I'm already at work when I get up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same situation, and I think it’s the new permanent office arrangement moving forward; no complaints from me. Today is a weird convergence: Ride to work day, while working from home, on a public holiday where I’m not working. Guess I’ll ride to lunch instead… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HGP61 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 "Bummer, I missed out on the ride to work day because I'm retired. If I had realised I would have got up early and rode to my previous place of employment, parked at the gate and with a big smile on my face waved at all my ex colleagues as they arrived at work then made off on a lovely day ride. Maybe next year. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member piotrek Posted June 21, 2022 Supporting Member Share Posted June 21, 2022 Didn't know about the June 20 thing... but Mondays are my designated in-office days, so I took the bike. I decided to try out my new moto backpack that my gang bought me for Father's Day (Ogio No Drag Mach 1). It is super light and spacious enough for a laptop, adapters, change of clothing/shoes and lunch... 4kg total strapped to my back. The bike handled more naturally without the big/heavy 48L top case hanging off the rear. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Batgirl Posted June 21, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted June 21, 2022 Rode to work yesterday and today (my employer observed the holiday on Friday instead of Monday). Was a nice, hot, but low traffic day on Monday. Had a great ride. Trying to ride to work as much as possible (tomorrow and Thursday are heat stroke warning days so no riding). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
