We will ride at a pace of about 10mi/hour for just under 2 hours. This will be a scenic and social ride on paved rail trails with a few road crossings. The goal of this ride is to experience a new extension of the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail and to make new friends! We will not be aiming for speed but will go the distance by riding at a casual pace for about 18 miles. This ride will be most comfortable for people who have spent time on their bikes already this spring and have built some riding endurance. It is also ideal for people who want to ride a good distance and do not want to ride on the road. \nWHAT TO BRING: Your bike\, helmet\, and comfortable clothing for riding.
