-An exciting FESTIVAL, a poppin’ PARADE, super creative COSTUMES and whacky outfits!
-UNUSUAL and unbelievable bikes and competitions!
-An opportunity to celebrate the CAR/BIKE TRADE (check out at: http://www.newbelgium.com/events/ ). One event attendee will hand over their car keys and pledge to live a full year car-free.
