Virginia Bicycling Federation’s ‘Bicycling Friendly’ decal was presented by the Blue Ridge Bicycle Club to River Laker for going carless and making a big deal about it! at the Mayor’s Bike Ride on Saturday, May 2 . Showcased were the Mayor, Vice Mayor Lea, and Dr. Cutler from City Council. Sheriff Octavia Johnson was there. Senator Edwards rode a SHAREBIKE to the Monument…and Goodlatte sent a letter of support.
Catch the Bike Bug - pull out your old frame and pump up the tires! Or pump up the economy by buying new or recycled. See you at Bike Month events…especially the restaurants…with biking you save more than gas money! Go to bikeroanoke.com for more info.
