BikeMO featured in Columbia Missourian
The Columbia Missourian featured BikeMO in the October 17th issue, with several photographs:
Different folks and different spokes showed up at the 6th annual BikeMO Fall Foliage Extravaganza on Saturday.
Held by the Missouri Bicycle and Pedestrian Federation as a fundraiser for their advocacy work, the ride included 17-, 40-, 62- and 100-mile routes.
About 175 riders participated, which made this year’s ride one of the event’s bigger years, according to Fred Schmidt, treasurer of the federation.
Schmidt, a Columbia resident since 1959, said there are usually roughly 100-200 riders each year. He suspected the beautiful weather had something to do with the larger number of participants this year.
BikeMO riders featured on the front page of the Jefferson City Tribune
The front page of the Jefferson City Tribune December 21st, 2009, featured a photo of BikeMo 2009 participants rolling out from the start line. (The article was about a new trail connection between the Katy Trail and Holt’s Summit.)
BikeMO is organized by, run by, and benefits the Missouri Bicycle Federation.
