The city of Venice announced this week it has received Silver Bicycle Friendly Community status from the League of American Bicyclists. Director of Planning Chad Minor and bicycle enthusiast Steve Christian hold an official street sign showing the designation.
The city of Venice has yet another feather in its cap: official designation as a bicycle-friendly community.
Bicycle enthusiast and Parks & Recreation Advisory Board Member Monty Andrews, who’s been pursuing the idea for several years, wasn’t available to take the credit but his fingerprints are all over the effort.
