It Only Comes Around Once a Year: Decorated Bike Contest for Fourth of July Parade


Enter your bike into the contest and ride in the Severna Park parade.

It's time to start thinking about decorating- not the house- but the bikes! At least help grab the decorations now since the annual Fourth of July Parade is right around the corner, or actually starting up the road at St. Martin's In-the-Field Church and Our Shepherd Lutheran Church at 10 a.m. on July 4.

The annual event, sponsored by the Greater Severna Park Chamber of Commerce features floats, cars, marching bands and one of the highlight for kids -the decorated bike contest.

Registration for the contest is from 9:15 to 10 a.m. at the Chamber of Commerce, 1 Holly Ave. There is no fee to enter.

Each year, the Greater Severna Park Chamber of Commerce, as part of its Independence Day festivities, sponsors the Decorated Bike Contest. Children are encouraged to decorated their bikes, tricycles and wagons, and enter the contest. There will be Hugs the Clown, bicycle obstacle course, and information on bike safety to round out the day, said Linda Zahn, CEO of the Chamber.

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
