Bike with BCC

We're hoping to put together some bike rides for church members and friends.  If you don't regularly ride, here's an opportunity to have your bike receive routine maintenance for free and get assessed to see if it needs more work to be road ready.  It's this Saturday October 26 and the information is in the attached mail. The closest participating retailer is Hilltop Bicycles in Madison.
