Friday, August 7th, 2009Nearly 250 people from Minnesota and around the country gathered in Winona, MN for the 2009 TCBC Weekend on Wheels/ League of American Bicyclists National Rally. With river valleys, rolling hills, farmland, and great climbs, the routes provided spectacular riding. The Bicycle Alliance of Minnesota (BikeMN) provided volunteers at rest stops all weekend and helped in planning the Traffic Skills 101 class held on Friday. Saturday night, Winona was presented with five bike racks donated by Dero on behalf of BikeMN. “Winona is a community well on their way to becoming very bicycle friendly,” said Nick Mason of Dero, “bicycle parking is just one part of the plan.” BikeMN executive director, Dorian Grilley also shared his vision for bicycling in Minnesota. “Together we can give bikes a voice throughout our state and make more communities like Winona possible.”
