Description

WESTFIELD, NJ — Back by popular demand is Tour de Westfield —a three-mile family bike parade coming this June. The community biking event is returning for its second year on Sunday, June 12 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. The bike parade will be led by the Westfield Police Department, a WPD Bike Safety Rodeo, the "Tour de Tots" for younger children on tricycles and the "Bling Your Bike" contest. This year, Westfield is upping the ante with "Tour de Tricks" — where kids nine and older can learn how to jump a curb or see a wheelie demonstration up close. Jay's Cycle, the local bike shop, will also be on hand to perform safety checks on bikes at the event. To add to the fun, entertainment will be provided by The Spinners, and food for purchases will be available from local businesses. Based on last year's turnout, the town expects a lot of bikers to register for this year's event. Registration will be available in the coming weeks. Look out for more information soon from the Recreation Department. The Recreation Commission & Department is organizing this event, in collaboration with the Westfield Police Department, Green Team, Bicycle Advisory Board, BRAKES Coalition and Downtown Westfield Corporation.
