Colorado Egg Producers Association Events Coordinator Terri Heine and CEP Industry Relations Director David Collie enjoyed the whirlwind of activities offered at the 2018 Pedal the Plains. They once again took part in the event and engaged in great dialogue about ag and all things eggs with the 1,000-plus riders who participated.
The Pedal the Plains each year serves as an opportunity for cyclists to learn about farming, ranching and other rural industries, while also experiencing the unique culture, history and landscape of Colorado’s eastern plains communities.
This year’s Pedal the Plains three-day biking event trekked through the communities of Kiowa, Bennett and Limon, and marked the seventh year that the Governor’s Office has partnered with the Denver Post Community Foundation to spearhead the event.
