The city of Paso Robles hosted the mayor of a small Italian city last weekend during the region's newest cycling event inspired by a ride first held in 1997 in Italy.
L'Eroica, which means "the heroic" in Italian, is a cycling ride featuring vintage bicycles that came to the United States for the first time this year as Eroica California. The event is designed to promote the environment and a love for cycling and included bike rides and a community festival in Paso Robles' Downtown City Park.
