#2 – From WV PUBLIC –  As temperatures start to rise, people are taking the opportunity to get outside. One group in Morgantown is taking to the streets on their bicycles.
On an unseasonably warm evening in March, just as the sun was setting across the Monongahela River, a group of about 20 gathered at the Hazel Ruby McQuain Park amphitheater, ready to take to the streets on their bikes.
Organizer Drew Gatlin said promoting bikes as a viable mode of transportation is an objective of the social rides, albeit a secondary one.
