The “Discover Foothill” festival included free bike checks courtesy of Montrose Bike Shop, a bicycle safety talk given by CHP, information from the Crescenta Valley Town Council, and a short bike ride on the new Foothill bike lanes led by Safe & Healthy Streets Coordinator Colin Bogart. Local businesses up and down Foothill participated by offering discounts and gift items to attendees. There was also a History Walk led by Mike Lawler. Thanks to everyone who volunteered at the event, the participating businesses, and especially to Steve Pierce, Robbyn Battles, and Paul Rabinov for putting it all togeher.

Bike to Work Day Glendale included a pit stop at City Hall (pictured) as well as 4 other locations around the city. Twenty-two cyclists visited the City Hall stop and enjoyed coffee, donuts, fruit, juice, and a goodie bag containing patch kits, maps, and other items. Michelle from Clif Bar joined us, promoting their 2 Mile Challenge as well as handing out Clif Bars and super cool bandanas, buttons, and key chains. We don’t have all the totals for Glendale yet, but as soon as we do, we’ll let you know.
