Donation: $4.00. All proceeds from this event will go toward the creation of one-of-a-kind bike racks, designed by local artists, in downtown Youngstown.
Performances by: Chris Splain, Joe Shelby; The Realtime Digimob...followed by a dance party with Matt and Richie. Event will include a bike raffle as well as maps of "Best Bike Routes in Youngstown" (provided by Outspokin' Wheelmen bike club). This project brought to you by a coalition of interested citizens, bike riders, and Youngstown artists.
All patrons of downtown Youngstown are urged to support this bike rack fundraiser. Without adequate bike racks, people will continue to chain their bikes to whatever structure they are able to find.
In conjunction with this fundraiser, a Bicycle Transportation Map of Youngstown is being released. The map lists city streets that are suitable for novice cyclists, intermediate cyclists, and advanced cyclists. Steep inclines are also noted. The map was created with the help of cyclists from the Out-Spokin Wheelmen and the Ohio Bicycle Federation.
