A group of around twenty bicyclists toured green-built homes for sale in West Asheville Saturday afternoon. Led by Mosaic Realty representatives Justin Mitchell and Mike Figura, the bicycle caravan traveled around five miles through neighborhoods off of Haywood and Brevard Road, viewing eight homes and condos. The green-built homes were equipped with high-efficiency fixtures and appliances in addition to their environmentally-conscious construction and location.
