Advocacy & Safety - Wilmington, NC. Bicycle Advisory Committee

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

Update on the weekend rides:

On the River to the Sea ride there were about 45 cyclists of all different sizes, shapes and styles. 30 riders of all different sizes, shapes and styles attended the Critical Mass. Each ride was made of separate people--did that make sense? What I'm trying to say is that only myself and another guy did both rides, which means there were approx. 73 cyclists counted for both rides. Not bad for the first Critical Mass in a few years and a city that has a population of 100,000.
