After entering dozens of raffles and other contests I finally bought one (2010 New Belgium brewery) from an employee who also had a 2012. I dont know why the bike parking sign is upside down but it is ridiculous. Sorry, cant help you get one. Good luck, the 2013s are black and pretty stripped down compared to the last few years.

maybe the way to look for work is take a weekday off and just drive around the town I want to work in and look for companies with bikes parked outside and then go in those and look for work. if they have bike commuters, then they are the kind of company I want to work for!

The secure, indoor bike room where I work. Its a new building with changing room, exercise facility, showers etc. I feel very lucky. No bike in pic since obviously the construction guys are still there.

While my work does provide bicycle cages in the parking garage, this courtyard is only accessible through a keycard locked gate, and surrounded by high-quality steel mesh. Also it's way closer to the door. (Note the feathered guardian peeking out from behind the front wheel. She's been waddling around the courtyard for the past few weeks - I've seen her fly out so I know she's not trapped, but I think she likes it in there.)

Finally trails are good enough and weather somewhat cooperative to get my first commute this year, 30 mi RT. 34F when I left in the AM, in 50s on way home.

I didn't commute - I hauled it in the car so I could ride during lunch. Does that count?

No one carries the DogBoy
This winter. No racks in winter, only wheelbender rack in the spring/summer/fall. I have since added a front fender.

parked at our new facility. I have a few hundred thousand square feet to park in. I'm the only cyclist at this location. Granted there are only a dozen of us there.
