Locally we've worked with close to 30 outreach programs. There has been a concerted effort from the beginning to develop this as a family festival. |
Our mission statement is to introduce young people to the sport of cycling. We want them to get off of the couch, get away from the computer screen and onto a bicycle. |
We're an outside event, so we just have to adjust, unless of course safety becomes an issue. We've moved a course or two and some vendors, but we're on rain or shine. |
We're certainly pleased to create a positive economic impact for our wonderful community. But we're more delighted to introduce young people to the wonderful sport of cycling. |
