Bikefest Rumbles Into Area

Bikefest weekend may have started on a rough note weather-wise with showers and thunderstorms, but the rain gave way to plenty of sunshine on Saturday with clear skies, again expected, for Sunday. Thousands of bikes from all over the Midwest converged on the Lake Area with local merchants of all kinds reporting business as being brisk for the weekend. Law enforcement bolstered its presence for the weekend with no real trouble of any kind being reported as of this time. There was, however, at least one incident with a biker laying his machine down early Saturday evening on the eastbound lanes of the Glaize Bridge…there was no word on the extent of any injuries.
