100+ cyclists celebrated May as bike month on Saturday, May 1, by riding their bicycles with Mayor David Bowers. People of all ages and riding abilities rode from Reserve Avenue to the Mayor’s monument in Elmwood Park. Many of the riders took advantage of the hassle free bike parking to enjoy the activities, food and music at the Strawberry Festival, the Chili Cookoff, vendors and shops at the historic city market and the sounds of the music festival in downtown Roanoke. State Senator Ralph Smith, Councilman Trinkle, city manager Chris Morrill and Drew Densmore from Senator Warner’s office rode with the Mayor.
Barbara Duerk, ride chair said, “The bicycle culture in Roanoke is changing. More people are choosing to ride bicycles for healthy lifestyle and a gas free clean and green transportation choice. Residents in the neighborhoods can access downtown by bike. Residents living downtown can cycle to Valley View on the Lick Run Greenway.”
