Community Bike Ride 2009
More than 60 people participated in the WWBPA’s third annual family-friendly Community Bike Ride on Saturday, September 26, 2009. Our route took us from just outside WaterWorks in Community Park to Grover Middle School (for refreshments courtesy of McCaffrey’s) and back. Total distance was less than eight miles. A free drawing for all participants included a number of bicycle safety items as well as a certificate for a free pizza at AlJon’s.
The route followed Slayback Drive, Edinburg Road and Village Road East. As usual, the ride was free, and there were no advance sign-ups. All children were required to be accompanied by a parent or other adult. Helmets were required for all riders. A number of bike safety checks and skill drills were offered prior to the ride.
