But don't leave without making sure your surroundings are safe for bikers and pedestrians. This month, Knox County's Tom Bilcze (Community Ride Leader) is offering a free Walk & Bike Audit workshop at the CA&C Depot on 9/26 at 6:30pm. Join in to learn more or become a Walk/Bike Audit Leader and support your local community!
