WILL ROSE GOWEN RIDE A CAR OR BICYCLE ON CHARRO DAYS?

(Ed.'s Note: Everyone's wondering whether City of Brownsville Commissioner Rose Gowen will ride on a carbon-monoxide spewing automobile or ride a health-conscious bicycle this year on Charro Days. Gowen, who has single-handedly funneled millions of local resources toward the construction of hike and bike trails and has had the city fund her Farmers' Market, rode this car last year. Will she put her money (we don't think so, not her own) where her, ahem, ample seat is, or will she remain true to her convictions and pedal her bike as a show of healthy living? We'll soon see.)
