BIKE CHARLOTTE WEEK, May 4th- 13th

Recently, a hard working member of the Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation Greenway Trails Advisory Council sent me an email regarding Bike Charlotte Week. The week's festivities includes a Bike Commuter Challenge which is sponsored by the Bike Mentor Program. Basically work, neighborhood and other social groups form teams of people who already or are willing to commute to and from work any or all of the days during Bike Week.

There are prizes and recognition for teams with the highest participation and for miles ridden. The primary purpose of the even is to expose people and the community to the fun and challenges of bike communting in a city that is working towards becoming more bike and pedestrian friendly.

For more information, you can contact: Dick Winters @ 704-544-2046
