Re: Who profits from Bike Week?
There are a huge number of businesses that totally close during bike week. Look on a map and see how difficult it is to go between Meredith and Alton with the bridge closed. In addition we know of many locals who leave town and tourists who avoid the Lakes Region during bike week. No one has ever been able to provide meaningful evidence that this event is that beneficial or generates significant income LOCALLY. Why not scale it back so that it is more manageable?
