It turns out that over 3000 people visited the Grove for Miami Bike Day last weekend, the largest group yet! And it was declared by many who have participated in other Miami Bike Days, as the best one yet. I have only heard good things about Sunday's event, from everyone.
The Grove had a very European flair about it during Bike Day. More than one person told me that, too. There was just something about the people, the bikes, the lack of many motor vehicles. Commodore Plaza's resturants were full and it was just a day for friends to have a good time visiting with friends.
The streets were buzzing and people weren't looking for the things we always talk about, that we always say we are lacking -- certain stores, restaurants, parking, etc.. It seems that just having a bunch of friends enjoying the day, the Grove, the whole vibe, is all that was needed. It did not come down to material things.
We need more of this. This is what the Grove is about and this is how we need to express ourselves and market ourselves to everyone. It's a feeling, a vibe, an experience.
