Goshen Named Bicycle Friendly Community
Posted by Phil G-E on September 16, 2011
I just saw this news on Facebook from the City of Goshen:
Goshen Named Bicycle Friendly Community by the League of American Bicyclists. The City joins South Bend, Bloomington, Carmel and Indiana/Marion County as the only other Indiana communities with this designation. The City is committed to promoting bicycling for fun, fitness and transportation.
Here’s a link to the press release reporting the addition of Goshen, IN as one of 11 new BFCs across the country for Fall 2011.
Very well done, Goshen Bikes! Thanks to all who helped make this happen!
