DULUTH — Organizers of the 2022 Kraus-Anderson Bike Duluth Festival held at Spirit Mountain in August gave a $54,000 check to local nonprofit groups last week with the money aimed at expanding cycling opportunities in the Northand.
The money went to the Harbortown Rotary and the nonprofit Cyclists of Gitchee Gumee Shores. Much of the money raised is used to support cycling trails and amenities in the Twin Ports area.
This year’s donation of $54,000 brings the total amount of money raised throughout the event’s eight years to more than $330,000. The 2022 Bike Duluth Festival attracted more than 400 participants and included multiple types of races and showcased the availability of chairlift-supported downhill riding. Another event is scheduled for August 2023.
