Rohnert Park CBE Customer Appreciation Ride a Success!!

Bicycle Emporium in Rohnert Park hosted an awesome 65 mile Coast Ride and Food Fest this past weekend. Around 40 riders of all abilities showed up to enjoy the ride. The ride was complete with sag, scenic views, lots of rolling hills, laughs and did I mention tons of grub! We enjoyed Maria's Pizza Shack pizza and pasta, energy drinks, beer, cookies, and more. Don't be bummed if you missed it...because you can make the next one coming up soon (find out more below).
