Fair’s Fare

The California State Fair is in full swing in Sacramento, and there is a new exhibit that might be worth a visit tot the fair if you’re in the area.  It’s called “Pedaling to Adventure,” a large exhibit drawn in part from Davis’ U.S. Bicycling Hall of Fame.

Highlights of the free exhibit include bicycles ridden by those mortal enemies, Greg LeMond and Lance Armstrong, plus a wide array of machines from more distant history and for uses beyond racing, like those little Stingrays.

The purpose of the exhibit, in part, is to encourage riding today, according to a Davis city official who helped organize the exhibit.

Sounds worth a visit if you find yourself in Sacratomato (as locals sometimes refer to the town) whose only other charm is the American River Bike Trail.
