Webster On Wheels
First held in 2009, Webster On Wheels (WOW) is Webster’s only annual community bike riding event. Held on Sunday, May 5, at Bristol Elementary School, WOW brought the community — kids, parents and adults — together for a fun and safe bicycle event. “And there were absolutely no scrapes, cuts, bruises, falls or crashes,” said one of the event’s coordinators, Dave Buck. Sunday’s event included free bike safety checks, traffic safety tips from Webster police, and a stunt show from the St. Louis Sprockets.
