Nice job Grey Cloud! Why would you want to bring in some money, people and great publicity to our area? I know it would be super hard to close down the one road that’s already a state biking route. Another win…

Number one, “the money” will be mostly in St.Paul Park. Who you kidding?
Second, to shut down the roads for this is as stupid as it gets. As far as the state bike routes go…..that crap should be nixed to, untill proper shoulders to ride on are in place. AND I mean throughout the whole state!
Good thinking Gray Cloud. You thought about your residents first. Which IS AS IT SHOULD BE.

St. Paul Park wouldn’t make any money either. I don’t think any of the cyclists would patronize any of the bars or restaurants.

Yeah Buzz, I think you also have a point there. Those typs are not about to eat or drink on the St.Pau Park main drag, because the “fruity power drinks” and the like will be sold out of a sponsers cart at the start and finish line. BUT…you`d all get to pay for the police protection along the route!
Thank you Gray Cloud.
