This
Saturday is the Athens Bike Rodeo at the Athens Community
Center. Bring your kids, their bikes and their helmets.
Athens Bicycle is a proud sponsor of this fun event,
which teaches
kids
about
bike safety and bike skills. Kids can ride the rodeo
safety course, learn hand signals and handling skills,
and have their bikes inspected for safety. Don't have
a helmet for your child? Event organizers will hand
out 200 bike helmets, and Athens
Bicycle is donating a children's mountain bike for
the raffle. Also, members of the Athens Bicycle Mountain
Bike Team will
be on
hand to assist with safety checks and skills instruction.
Best of all, the Athens Bike Rodeo is free!
