Team Punta Gorda Presents:

The City Manager’s 2020 Bicycle Tour - A Pedal and Play Special Event

Punta Gorda city manager Howard Kunik will lead special bicycle tours which highlight areas of the city.

With the help of a police escort, riders will follow Howard from site to site stopping at interesting points along the way. Aided by a portable sound system and employing his characteristic enthusiasm for our city,  Howard will fill riders in on what they are seeing.

The tour will be repeated in the afternoon.

Over lunch, available at rider's expense from food trucks such as Wally's Barbecue, Purple Potato, JD's Chuckwagon, a special celebration will be held so riders can acknowledge Howard for his service to Punta Gorda.
