Photo of the Week Submitted by: Elle Steele Bustamante, Sacramento

Elle's story: We bike over 100 miles a week to do almost everything we need to do. I now take my kids everywhere by bike and do all our errands by bike. We went from thinking that we would use the bike, if we could and changed our mindset to "if we can do it by bike, we will!" It has made all the difference.
