Bike out to the farms, meet your local farmers and take a tour, eat and drink delicious local food and craft beverages al fresco. Student ticket prices available. Need a scholarship or want to inquire about family discounts? Shoot us an email! info@bikelibrary.org Your charitable contribution less the fair market value of $65 per ticket may be tax-deductible as allowed by law. Bike Library Inc is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. This celebration aims to contribute momentum to the community bike culture and the local food movement. Thank you for your support and for helping us in our mission to get more people in Johnson County on bicycles. A note to parents: these routes are not planned with children in mind. This might be a great day to get a sitter. We will be riding on the street, and getting out into the county with larger vehicles. The routes are high mileage and we don't recommend this as a first long ride for kiddos.
