Bike to JavaOne 2007

Sun is continuing to promote Eco Responsibility at JavaOne and will be hosting our second-annual Bike to JavaOne for all partners, employees and conference attendees next week. To help Sun make JavaOne a "greener" event, you are encouraged to bike or take public transportation to the conference.

To make things easier, Sun has again partnered with the San Francisco Bike Coalition to offer a free "Bike Valet" services. The "Bike Valet" service will be available Monday through Thursday from 8:00 am - 7:00 pm and Friday from 8:00 am - 1:00 pm in front of the Moscone Center South Hall.

So, please tell your conference-going friends, post a quick note on your blog and bike to JavaOne.

  50 miles from my place ... but I can ride the bike using CalTrain for part of the way, at least ...

  
  In the Bay Area, as well as most other places in the U.S., part of the challenge of doing the bike thing is to figure out how to do it part of the way ... For pure bicycling, maybe we should have the conference in Davis, California; Palo Alto, California; or Berlin, Germany!

• Last year they gave out some fancy backpacks to the bicyclists who participated...

• I didn't participate last year because I wanted to stay past 7pm.

• Hmmm... 7,019 miles from my place to Moscone, and I'm not sure about step 44. I think I'll pass to :-)
