Tomorrow, if only for a day, the tables will be turned. Cyclists will wander fearlessly through traffic, knowing that they have strength in numbers, while cars proceed meekly through roads populated by amateur cyclists, roadies, off-roaders, and seasoned two-wheeled urban warriors. It’ll be the day where Indians become chiefs, hunted the hunters.

Ok, so maybe that’s a little dramatic. Tomorrow is, though, Bike to Work Day. Part of the national Bike to Work Week, which spans the week of May 16-20, Bike to Work Day is a celebration of commuting to and from work on two wheels. Sponsored locally by the Washington Area Bicyclist Association, tomorrow’s festivities will include 19 pit stops in the area at which participants — 4700 are currently expected — can gather, eat breakfast, win prizes, and join cyclist convoys to safely navigate to work. Registration is still open. The primary pit-stop, at Freedom Plaza in the District, will feature a variety of speakers — confirmed are D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, Congressional bike proponent Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-Ore.), Council-member Phil Mendelson (D-At Large), and the Director of the District Department of Transportation, Dan Tangherlini.

DCist will be roaming the city streets tomorrow morning on bike, taking in the scenery and snapping some shots for a full rundown on the day’s events.

As part of our service to the public, and continuing in our series of cool infographics (the first having been dedicated to the unofficial rules of Metro), DCist has put together an unofficial guide on how drivers and cyclists can best co-exist on the city’s crowded streets.

The guide is available in whole after the jump.
