Hundreds of residents across the city will be participating in Bike to Work Day during today’s commute. For Ballardites who are keen to get in on the action there are multiple commuter stations around the neighborhood to refuel you on your journey.
Check out the list of commuter stations in Ballard below:
- Solo Lofts and Bauhaus Books & Coffee Commuter Station at 2001 NW Market St (Corner of NW Market and 20th Ave NW) from 6 a.m. – 9 a.m. Cruise by for coffee, Mighty O and Top Pot doughnuts!

I would like if Salmon Bay Sand & Gravel set up a commuter station along the ‘missing link’
They could hand out little pieces of re-bar for bicyclists to wave off cars that don’t allow three feet of space.
And vouchers for safe bike riding instruction classes.
This morning, I noticed what I think are new white markings on the missing link section just west of Fred Meyer. Maybe the city is finally getting ready to paint the lines to mark those bike lanes.
