Why aren't there more bike lanes in town?
How can I get a bike rack at my grocery store? Bicycling Ambassadors will be there to answer your burning questions (related to bicycling, that is).

Donna Young, City Greenways Coordinator, will be on hand to answer questions about greenways. Jeff Roth Cycling Foundation will be there with pre-order forms for a Share the Road specialty license plate, and more. Get info about local bike clubs and their group rides and events. Kevin Durand with Knox County Health Department can tell you more about the Safe Routes to School program.
