Wednesday Oct. 21—Did you know that most Cedar Falls
residents live within one mile of a bicycle trail?
According to Brent Johnson, the owner of BikeTech, a bicycle
specialty store, that is one of the reasons why bicycling in one of its various
types and styles is such a popular pastime. There are bikes designed for common
recreational riding as well as models suited for mountain and off-trail riding
and even for extreme sports.
One of the latest advances is electronic shifting, which
replaces mechanical cables with a computer cable for smooth and precise
shifting.
A state association is working to improve the image and importance
of bicycling for recreation, fitness and basic transportation.
We appreciate the time Brent spent with us today and for his
informative comments.
