Make your Monday morning commute more enjoyable and save some fuel by taking part in the 21st annual International Motorcycle & Scooter Ride to Work Day on June 18, 2012.

This event was started by a non-profit organization based in Proctor, Minnesota, to show the general public and politicians how many motorcyclists there are, and that they come from all occupations and walks of life. The group also wants to demonstrate that motorcycling is for a social good and that motorbikes can be used for transportation and recreation.

Cities throughout the U.S. support the event as well as companies like Sena Technologies Inc.—a Bluetooth innovator in the motorcycle industry. In a recent press release, Sena encouraged motorcycle and scooter owners to take part in the upcoming Ride to Work Day.

“By supporting International Ride to Work Day, we want to encourage motorcycle and scooter riders to get to their destinations safely and responsibly,” said Marc Woo, president of Sena Technologies Inc. North and South America. “Staying connected to friends or loved ones or to other riders in one’s group can be a lifesaver in a stressful situation on the road. Sena Bluetooth headset/intercom systems are extremely advantageous in many situations for responsible motorcycle and scooter riders who commute.”

So on Monday, leave your car at home, hop on your motorbike or scooter and join the world in celebrating the 21st annual International Motorcycle & Scooter Ride to Work Day.
