Bicycle Friendly press conference canceled

A press conference to talk about the city of Columbia's new designation as a Bicycle Friendly Community has been canceled because of forecasted bad weather this afternoon.

The press conference has been rescheduled for 3 p.m. Nov. 20 at the Rosewood Market and Deli, 2803 Rosewood Drive, on the outdoor patio.

Columbia is the second city in the state to receive the designation.

The Bicycle Friendly Communities Campaign is an awards program that recognizes municipalities that actively support bicycling. A Bicycle-Friendly Community provides safe accommodation for cycling and encourages its residents to bike for transportation and recreation.
