The annual Jlab Fall Cycling Commute Challenge (FCCC) is almost upon 
us.       The FCCC is meant to encourage sustained bike commuting here 
at Jlab.   Last year three of us tracked our bike commute days from 
Labor day to the Winter Solstice.    This is a particularly challenging 
time span as it starts with late summer days in the mid-90s, transitions 
through daylight savings time, and ends with the sheer joy of bike 
commuting with temperatures in the 30s, rain and darkness.

With that in mind, I encourage everyone who participates to make sure 
they have a safe (lights, reflectors) bike to carry them through the 
challenge.

This year I propose two awards:

 1. *Highest percentage* of *scheduled days* commuted to work by bicycle
 2. Most bike commute miles

This is different than last year, where one of use was penalized due to 
work related travel.   So days where one is not schedule to be at the 
lab (travel, vacation, sick) are not counted.

I've developed a google-doc spreadsheet that will be used to track 
everyone's progress, so if you are up to the challenge let me know your 
gmail address and I'll share the spreadsheet with you.

Awards??
*Dave and Bill*:  Is JAG or the JLAB sustainability office willing to 
"support" the FCCC  and provide incentives (aka as prizes)?   Otherwise 
it will have be an exchange of fermented malt beverages again.
