Cascade’s Cyclefest and BikeMania events will take over Magnuson Park Friday, July 22. The event includes several kids events followed by a screening of Stage 19 of le Tour complete with a beer garden and BMX show.
Here’s how Cascade describes the event:
Join us for the biggest Tour de France-inspired festival on the west coast! This annual family-friendly event is a great occasion for relaxing with your family or friends over a picnic. For one day a year, we close down a block within the park and throw a giant bike party!
