Ride a Bike to Your Favorite Downtown Columbus Summer Festival

ride a bike to your favorite columbus festival this summer

Mayor Mike is up to his old green ways again while he promotes his GREEN campaign by promoting the bicycle-friendliness of Columbus' major festivals. Did you know that Columbus has 58 miles of fitness and bike trails (though for the life of me, I can't find an online map detailing them). The bike corral idea seemed to work well at Goodale Park for Earth Day over the weekend and we're also talking about the

Columbus Arts Festival on June 7-10 on the downtown riverfront;
the Rose Festival on June 9 and 10 at the Whetstone Park of Roses;
Festival Latino on June 15 and 16 along the downtown riverfront; and at the
Community Festival at Goodale Park (Comfest has been championing this cause for years)
Pride Festival on June 23 at Bicentennial Park
Riverfest on June 30 along the riverfront at North Bank Park
Jazz and Rib Fest from July 20 through 22 along the downtown riverfront
Family Fun Fest on Sept. 15 on the downtown riverfront at Genoa Park.

The move is intended to help reduce parking demand and car traffic, and to encourage fitness.
Did you know that city hall has a Green Team?
