Congratulations to SF Bike Commuter of the Year: Dr. Shirley Johnson
Each year in honor of Bike to Work Day, inspiring cyclists are
nominated for the title of San Francisco County's Bike Commuter
of the Year.
Congratulations to Dr. Shirley Johnson who was nominated by
several people this year for her commitment to bicycle commuting
and inspiring so many others to do the same. Shirley Johnson is
a familiar face around the SFBC as the campaign founder and
leader of the SFBC's BIKES ON board campaign to increase bicycle
capacity on Caltrain:

One nomination explained, "What makes Shirley worthy of this
prestigious distinction is that she is making it possible for
hundreds of other Peninsula bicycle commuters in three counties
to take advantage of onboard bicycle carriage by having created
and tirelessly spearheaded a grassroots campaign to persuade
a reluctant Caltrain management to increase on-board bike-car
capacity for a service so popular that ticketed bicyclists
are still routinely denied boarding due to insufficient bike
capacity on trains."
Dr. Shirley Johnson will be honored as San Francisco County's
Bike Commuter of the Year at the SFBC's Bike Away from Work
Party on Bike to Work Day, Thursday, May 14 at the Rickshaw
