May 11-15: Bay State Bike Week


May is National Bike Month and here in Massachusetts we're doing our part to celebrate with Bay State Bike Week, May 11-17. It's your chance to join thousands of other bikers across the country by doing something for the environment and having a great time while you're at it. It's a win/win proposition.

RozzieBikes (http://www.rozziebikes.org) will be riding into town every morning of Bike week.

Check out the calendar on the website for more information on routes, and meeting time and place.
