This event is part of “Bike to the Library Month” at the Mercer Public Library. Ride your bike to the Mercer Library during the month of August and you can enter to win some fun bike-related prizes. Bike to the Library Month is sponsored by the Friends of the Mercer Public Library in celebration of the Mercer Bike Trail and the installation of a new bike repair station at the library in June 2022. Our new bike repair station was sponsored by a grant from the Gogebic Range Health Foundation with matching funds from the Gary and Virginia Theisen Family and the Friends of the Mercer Library.
