No fooling: If it's April, it must be time for the Bike Easy Challenge!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I'm joining the Bike Easy Challenge to get more Xavier faculty and staff riding bikes in New Orleans. Riding a bike can make you happier, healthier, and \u2014 yes \u2014 even wealthier. That's what I call professional development!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that New Orleans ranks #7 (among cities with over a quarter-million residents) for the percentage of people who bike to work?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And yet we could certainly do better by our bike riders, our transit riders, and our pedestrians. As I've argued elsewhere<\/a>, safe transport is an issue of social justice and aligned with Xavier's mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus there are awesome prizes for riding and encouraging others throughout the month of April. Find out more and register at lovetoride.net\/bikeeasy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It only takes a minute to register. It doesn't matter if you ride every day, or if you haven't been on a bike in years. Everyone is invited \u2014 and be sure to join the Xavier team!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holler at me if you need any technical assistance or have any questions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
