On the Bike Month page, you can also find information about the Get Up and Ride : National Bike Challenge. “Sign up as an individual or as a team, log your miles, share your stories and encourage others to join you. Riders will compete for prizes and awards on the local and national level, including a Grand Prize trip through California wine country from Trek Travel.”
Speaking of the Swamp Rabbit Trail, you can join Greenville Rec, Upstate Forever, and Furman University tomorrow, April 18th, at the Swamp Rabbit Café (205 Cedar Lane Road). They will be making an announcement about the sucess of the trail and will share results from the first year of a three-year impact study. If you can’t attend the event, the full presentation will be available soon after on the County's Swamp Rabbit page. I won't be able to make it in person, but I am looking forward to reading the good news about the impact of the SRT on our community.

Hi,
In the interest of celebrating Bike Month, I thought you’d be interested to hear about Dinner and Bikes, a month-long bike tour of the southeastern U.S. due to stop in Greenville on Saturday April 28th. Joe Biel, founder of Microcosm Publishing, and Elly Blue, author of Everyday Cycling: How to Ride a Bicycle (Whatever your Lifestyle), engage guests in discussions about the value and versatility of veganism and exchange stories about bicycle recreation, bike lane development imperatives and bike travel adventure. Joshua Ploeg, vegan chef and author of the popular cookbook, In Search of the Lost Taste, provides thoughtfully prepared vegan fare (all meals included with ticket price), and Joe Biel has brought along his traveling bookstore, featuring independently published graphic novels, poetry, memoirs and more.
Dinner and Bikes will be hosted by hosted by Pedal Chic at the Caine Halter Family YMCA, 721 Cleveland Street on Saturday, April 28th at 7p.m. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at www.dinneranbikes.com or at the door. RSVP on Facebook is optional. For more information see www.dinnerandbikes.com or email me at nicole@microcosmpublishing.com.
I believe your readers would be inspired to learn all you can accomplish on a bike—from preparing a meal for 100 to hosting dozens of parties throughout the U.S.––Dinner and Bikes is a forum to talk about alternative transportation and connect with community members. Would you be interested in joining us and sharing information about this event?
Thanks,
Nicole M. Lynch
