We like bike – motor-free, please

We heart Arizona Bike Week – one of the largest motorcycle rallies in the state, currently frequenting the Phoenix area – but we eco-friendly, transportation-challenged types prefer our bikes non-motorized and of the pedal variety. That’s why we’ll take extra precaution not to be run down by a burly chopper dude or dudette while moseying our way to the Tempe Bike-A-Palooza. The bicycle swap meet will showcase new and used bike goods, including fully assembled contraptions as well as individual parts so you can put together your own sweet ride.
