Crowds Expected at Fairfax’s Biketoberfest on Saturday

More than 5,000 cycling enthusiasts are expected to come to Fairfax on Saturday for the annual Biketoberfest Marin on Saturday, Oct. 13, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., at the Fair-Anselm Plaza.

As the Marin County Bicycle Coalition’s Tom Boss already outlined in a blog post on Patch, the event, hosted by the MCBC and Access4Bikes, will include: 

• Cargo Bike Jubilee with bike parade, workshops and competitions
• Live Music (see schedule below)
• Family Activities
• Brewfest with 30 beers from 18 West Coast Brewers
• Bike expo with 70 exhibitors
• Handmade bikes and bicycle museum
• Group road and mountain bike rides

Last year the event raised $25,000 for MCBC and A4B. 

The MCBC is encouraging attendants to bike to the free event, which will have free bike parking. The brewfest tasting is $25 in advance or $30 day of. For more information, visit biketoberfestmarin.com.
