National Bike-to-Work Day was started in 1956 by The League of American Bicyclists as a part of the National Bike-to-Work Week. Some have even gone so far as to have a Bike-to-Work Month as well.

The Bike to Work day is a way in which the Bicycle is recognised as a viable means of transport. The event is also a much needed inspiration for green and environmental awareness as well.

The video above shows footage of Bike-to-Work Day in Austin, San Francisco, New York City and Portland, Oregon.
