Bicycle Rodeo
The bicycles were inspected to make sure that all bikes were in safe, proper riding condition.  The children also learned about bicycle safety, skills, and laws.  Over 100 children came to the Bicycle Rodeo.  The children's bicycles were registered with the Atlantic Police Department and will be kept on record for future reference if needed.  The Reserve Officers were assisted by KS95, the Boy Scouts, and Atlantic members of the RAGBRAI RIDE RIGHT organization.
