So how was the bus ride this morning?  Wasn’t it nice not having to stress about that terrible driver in front of you needlessly hitting on his/her brake?  Did you get through a few emails, drink a coffee… or hit the snooze button in your head and close your eyes for a little longer as you glided to work in the comfort of a MTA bus?

Better yet…did you get lucky and ride the Mayor on Board Bus (35x) with Mayor Karl Dean this morning?  If you didn’t know, our mayor is an avid public transportation user and supporter, and once a month he rides a different route to get a better feel of the system and have the opportunity to talk with riders.  Since today was the kickoff for Transit Week, Mayor Dean took it one step further and read off a proclamation (TNN Proclamation) officially kicking off Transit Week 2012!  Check it out.

 
Don’t forget to share those experiences on our Facebook Page all week.  We’ll be checking.
