Issue: April 27, 2017
Morning, readers!
When was the last time you hopped on your bike? This week, we train our eye on all things bicycle-related, from the city of Chico's new Gold designation for being bicycle-friendly to a man who's made a career imagining up and fabricating specialized bike parts to some big news out of the local bike-shop world.
In other news: 1078 Gallery gets the boot over loud music; Prop. 64 could well have an effect on cartel grows that wreak havoc on public lands; and we get a first taste of what Monca has to offer.
Until next week,
Meredith J. Cooper, managing editor
