Kenda BikeFest, presented by Dirt Rag Comes to an End.
HANCOCK, MA (February 12, 2009) – Organizers of the Kenda BikeFest, presented by Dirt Rag Magazine announced today that, after 14 years, the Festival is coming to an end.
We are very sad to see the Fest come to an end after all these years. It’s been a summertime tradition for many cyclists and their families and we’ve felt a real sense of community with all involved. However, in the current economic climate producing the Festival has become too expensive to remain viable. The costs of doing business have continued to rise while the number of people attending has dropped off since mountain biking was in its heyday. We have received outstanding support over the years from our industry partners, sponsors, attendees and pro athletes – to them we are extremely thankful. In particular we would like to thank KENDA and Dirt Rag and, of course, PEDROS for all of their support in making the Festival possible for all these years.
