The Highland County Sheriff's Office would like to remind everyone that the Mountain Mama Bike Challenge is taking place this weekend. You can expect to see an increased number of bicyclists traveling on roads throughout the county.

• 🚗 Slowing down and using extra caution.
• 🚴 Giving bicyclists plenty of room when passing.
