Rescheduled Houston Bike Fest is this weekend

Driving the news: The event is 11am-3pm Saturday at Saint Arnold Brewing Co. and features Itty Bitty Bike Race — the Houston phenomenon that pits adults on kids' bikes against each other — free valet bike parking, food, beer and music from Houston's Ice House Radio.

The intrigue: Organizers with BikeHouston hope the event will spread positivity in Houston's bike scene.

• They'll also feature a cargo bike corral, where cycling parents can show off how they cart their children around town by bike.

What they're saying: "Houston doesn't immediately come to mind when we think about bicycling, but we actually have a really vibrant, diverse bike culture here," Joe Cutrufo, BikeHouston executive director, tells Axios.

• "We have everything from bicycle manufacturers to groups who organize bike tours to agencies who build bike infrastructure," Cutrufo said. "Bringing folks together from across the spectrum of Houston's bike scene should help amplify and multiply the work these groups are doing."

Flashback: The festival was initially scheduled for October but was rained out.
