Spring is here and what a better way to embrace the summer months than getting outside and enjoying everything the Berkshires have to offer! Biking is a great way to get out and enjoy life while commuting or doing your chores. In order to better support bikers in our community we have come up with a Southern Berkshire Bike Week. We want to get as many people as possible on their bikes during this week. Bike week is May 12th - 18th, 2008. During this time we will be having many wonderful events and challenges for individuals and businesses.

 

Why should we have a Southern Berkshire Bike Week?

 

  • To educate the community that bicycles are a beneficial mode of transportation
  • To make basic information on bicycle commuting available to potential riders
  •  To encourage people to try bicycles for commuting and shopping
  • To increase the general public's awareness and respect for bicyclists
  • To have fun
