Over 200 Garfield County residents celebrated two-wheeled transit on June 26, participating in BikeThere mini-events at each of the branch libraries and along the Rio Grande Trail in Glenwood Springs and Carbondale. Participants enjoyed snacks, swag, advice and camaraderie, along with a chance to win fabulous prizes (see sidebar for the list of winners).
We're grateful to our event partners – CLEER, Garfield County Libraries, Glenwood Springs Bicycle Advocates and RFTA – as well as our all the great local sponsors acknowledged at the bottom of this page.
