Friday Treat Stations and Bike to Work Day would not be possible without our lovely treat station hosts, who – rain or shine – get out there and make cyclists' commutes that much sweeter. From salmon to twinkies to a warm cup of coffee, we love them all and just want to say A HUGE THANK YOU for all their hard work in hosting treat stations, helping us spread the word and getting more commuters out on our trails and streets. Also, an extra special thank you goes out to Kaladi Brothers for all the coffee they donate, Alaska Public Media for your great videos and radio reminders about Bike to Work Day and Brendan Babb for you DJ talents at the Bacon Station. 

Thank you all!

About 50 people gathered for a bicycle tour of Spenard, highlighting the neighborhood’s assets, dangers, hazards and amenities. The tour was part of an effort sponsored by Bike Anchorage, the Anchorage  Metropolitan Area Transportation Solutions (AMATS), and the municipal planning department to develop a long-range strategy for what has been defined as the Spenard Corridor. The intention of the planning effort is to view not just Spenard Road, but also the entire surrounding neighborhood, through the lens of transit-oriented development.
