Chattanooga wins Outside magazine’s Best Town titleChattanooga Times Free Press and GetOut magazine were among the sponsors of the event Friday night.
Dave Campbell rode up to a little girl on his bike and popped a wheelie. His front wheel hung just inches from her face. But instead of being scared, she smiled and stuck her hand out, spinning his front wheel.
“All right!” he chuckled into his microphone, as the audience cheered.
Campbell and Nigel Kohring, part of the acrobatic bike show On the Edge, were one of several attractions for festival-goers Friday night at Miller Plaza in downtown Chattanooga. Some of the other attractions included food trucks, live music and the Miller Park fountain being turned into a play area for kids.
The celebration was in honor of Chattanooga winning the Best Town Ever competition by Outside Magazine earlier this summer.
