I am a
bike nut and I bike to work almost every day. And I'm a big supporter of alternative transportation, so I'm really glad to
see Sun supporting Bike to Work Week during JavaOne.
This year's JavaOne Conference falls during "Bike to Work Week". To
support this effort, Sun has partnered with the San Francisco Bike Coalition to offer a free "Bike Valet" service Monday to Thursday from 8:00
a.m.- 7:00 p.m. and Friday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. in front of the Moscone
Center South Hall. If biking isn't possible, Sun suggests public
transportation including BART, AC Transit, CalTrain, MUNI, the ferry, among
others. JavaOne attendees who support Sun's efforts by biking or taking
public transportation will be entered into a drawing for a Lance Armstrong
signed Discovery Team bike jersey, other Discovery Bike Team gear, Timbuktu
messenger bags, memberships to the Better World Club, the eco-friendly auto
club with the nation's only bicycle roadside assistance, and other great
prizes.
Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend JavaOne. Because if I was, I'd be first in line for that valet (and the drawing!)
