Do you know there’s a Bike Ecotourism Group, a subgroup within the Fox Valley Sustainability Network? Have you heard they are working toward a goal to register the Fox River trail as a National Park Service recognized trail? Want to find out more and how you can help?
Join us to hear Eric Weck speak about his organization’s vision. As part of this project, test rides will be scheduled with local town representatives to assess the current cycling infrastructure – trails, signage, public toilets, rail station access, etc. One objective is to standardize and coordinate trail amenities across communities with individual Fox Valley towns obtaining accredited Trail Towns status. A “Showcase Tour” is being planned in the fall for community representatives to ride the Fox River Trail from Aurora to St Charles and back. Come find out how our bike club can be part of this project to enhance riding amenities in our communities.
