City Explorers Ride with BicycleSPACE

Sunday, June 21, 2015 - 11:30am

From the BicycleSPACE website: "There’s no way to experience the city better than by bike. Join us on the City Explorers ride for an adventure as we travel around the city’s less-travelled paths for a few hours—we usually finish at about 3 PM.

Each ride is between 20-30 miles, depending on how adventurous we are feeling, and no one gets left behind. We usually recommend this ride to cyclists who have ridden the cupcake ramble at least once. How to prepare? Best to come with a road bike or performance hybrid (a flat-bar road bike), confidence on city roads or tame gravel paths, and a sense of adventure!"
