Festival Shows How Bike Friendly La Crosse Can Be

Scouting out this Annual Labor Day Weekend Bicycle Festival last year we found a full schedule of city bike tours, scenic roads, a bike rodeo and evenings filled with entertainment in the downtown area. A great time, worth checking out for this holiday weekend!
