On Saturday, March 23, the Riverbend Bicycle Club of Clinton is hosting its annual Icicle Bicycle ride. From 9:30-11am, bicyclists check in at the Bicycle Station, located at 218 Main Avenue in Clinton, Iowa. The route is 22 miles along the Discovery Trail, taking bicyclists from Main Avenue to Camanche and back. The cost is $25 per rider, and that includes a lunch ticket to either Homer’s Deli or Lyons Tap. Participants are encouraged to make stops along the way, as it is a ride; not a race.
“The ride is rain, snow, or shine as it is the Icicle Bicycle. Last year we had over 60 registrants, and it snowed that day. The trail was clear and we had a great ride,” said Mary Rupp, President of Riverbend Bicycle Club.
