There will also be a greeting station at Carbondale’s DeRail Park, across Colorado Highway 133 from the Roaring Fork Transportation Authority park-and-ride.

“Whether you are riding to work, to school, or for your morning errands, stop by for free breakfast snacks, coffee and juice, and meet other riders,” Glenwood Springs Transit Planning & Development Lead Linda DuPriest said in the release. “We will also be giving away free bike bells. Everybody needs one of these for safe riding.”
