Last Friday's national Ride to Work Day, charity-driven and coordinated by the League of American Bicyclists, had at least two enthusiastic CEOs, one from Illinois and the other Virginia.
"I did stay off the main streets and had to dodge a few school buses but it turned out to be a great seven-mile ride and I was glad to raise $1,500 for a local charity sending kids to summer camp," said Michael Rosek, president/CEO of the $80 million Rock Valley CU in Loves Park, Ill. Riding separately from her home was Rock Valley's Kim Summers, teller supervisor.
And in Virginia Beach, Ron Burniske, president/CEO of the $1.9 billion Chartway FCU, biked a full 100 miles as part of the event. An avid biker, he often hops on at 5 a.m. and "frequently grins and bears it during chilly months," noted Heidi Worker, corporate communications director for Chartway.
