Well, obviously
Brendan Leonard's great ride on my behalf did not happen last week, since the city of Boulder opted to reschedule its awards ceremony to May 11. But still, I appreciate Brendan's willingness to sweat profusely.
So here's the deal: I will be receiving my
Car-free Commuter of the Year award at the following ceremony. It's invitation-only, unfortunately, so I can't invite my readers... But after that's over I'll be hitting a happy hour somewhere downtown. So check this blog closer to the date, and I'll keep you posted where that will be. Join me for a drink if you like.
Here's the award event info:
