Bike Issue 2023

Spring showers bring promise of wildflowers and new cycling adventures

Bicycle races are coming your way, so forget all your duties, oh yeah—“Bicycle Race,” Queen

This special issue might be a month early for National Bike Month (which is May), but it is just in time for Chico’s biggest cycling event of the year, the Wildflower Century, which takes place on April 30. The CN&R’s Bike Issue is meant to coincide with this spring tradition, with Chico Velo hosting thousands of cyclists for a scenic tour of Butte County.

To inspire the riding spirit, we have a trio of bike stories on tap this year, including a profile on the inclusive, welcoming Chico Corsa cycling club (“Welcome to the bike club”); an update on the construction of the new Silver Dollar BMX track (“Getting back on track”); and a look at Bike-pedia, the current group art show on display at the Museum of Northern California Art (“Art on two wheels“).
