This coming Saturday will be a busy one for cycling activities. The Indy Criterium will be held downtown. Look for Circle City Bicycles there among the vendor tables. Also going on, south of Indianapolis, is the 25th Annual Round Barn Bike Ride, which starts in Brownstown. Available ride lengths are 32, 68 and 80 miles. The 80 mile route is a good trainer if you are getting ready for RAIN, which is the following Saturday. Interesting sights along the way include the Hall Round Barn, the Stuckwish Round Barn and the Medora Covered Bridge. At 430 feet long, the Medora bridge is the longest historic covered bridge in the United States.
