Over eighty cycling enthusiasts packed the Watauga County Library meeting room on Tuesday night for an informational meeting hosted by the Boone Area Cyclists (BAC). Attendees were welcomed by BAC’s Board of Directors and updated on current and future projects including Rocky Knob Park. Organized as a non-profit and boasting of a membership that has reached over 100 individuals since its inception in November, BAC is rapidly making an impact. Partnering with the Watauga County TDA, BAC has been influential the awarding of two trail grants for Rocky Knob Park, including $5,000 from Bikes Belong Foundation and $5,000 from Specialized Bikes. Members of BAC represent all types of cyclists and are working to provide one voice for the cycling community.
