Sweet Corn Blues Fest Bike Parking (2011)

Take advantage of secure bike parking at the corn festival August 27-28th. It'll be the closest parking spot you'll find! You'll save a dollar or two in gas and get some exercise. We're also hoping to park 500 bikes and you can help by riding and parking with us! Follow the signs (like the one pictured) to the secure valet-style bike corral just off the trail, northwest of the traffic circle in Uptown Normal. Feel free to leave your helmet and bags, too. While you're there, make sure you get a trail map and learn more about the Good To Go Commuter Challenge.
