Tomorrow is bike to work day for the City of Long Beach! Remember to leave your car in the garage and driveway, and bring out the spandex and helmet!
On Friday and Saturday, Pine Ave. and Smooth's will be hosting the Long Beach Bicycle Grand Prix Festival. The festival will consist of anything bicycle related including vendors, fashion shows, gear demonstrations and criterium road races.
The festival will start in the afternoon on Friday April 3rd and will feature live music, delicious food and the Wokcano Beer Garden. Live music and entertainment will follow, get your reservation at Smooth's for a premier outdoor table. The outside patio will have a perfect view of the stage for live entertainment. The staging will be similar to New Years on Pine Ave. So call now! (562) 437-7700.
The races on Saturday will run from 12:40 P.M. to 7 P.M. There are men's and women's events for all ages, and a special race for the police and fire department. Over the course of day bike riders from seven categories will be taking the streets to race including the $10,000 men's pro twilight race that will cap off the evening. Smooth's is a great place to order great food with a premier viewing place for the race!
The 80s Band, Was, is set to take the stage on Friday Night. Make sure to come out for a good time. Read Tim Grobaty's Press Telegram column about the festival here.
