There are also servings of fruit, donuts, coffee, etc. You don’t have to eat the bacon. I am a vegan and stop by every year to say hello and converse with my cycling friends and also meet new people. Please don’t be judgmental of others, we want others to be tolerant of us when we bike, so let’s start with tolerance ourselves.

Bacon on the Bike Path This title that pairs and promotes bacon with biking sends a conflicting message. Biking supports health to humans and to the environment. Bacon degrades both, and is cruel besides, even on the so-called “heritage” farms and “humane” slaughterhouses. Much of the public knows this. I’ve included some links below for those who would like information. Let’s sell biking, not bacon.
