This is the official ride that kicks off the festivities every year. Volunteers will be selling Bike Summer merch. There will be a limited amount of pennants and stickers for sale at the park, as well as shirts for you to try on before you buy online. There will also be Ride Leader pennants to give away, first-come, first-served, just show your ride listing on the calendar.

Volunteers on-site will help affix pennants to bikes. You are encouraged to dress yourself and your bike up. If you’re leading a ride this Bike Summer, consider promoting your event onsite with fliers, etc.

Depart at 6:30 p.m. on the dot for a family-friendly cruise. The end spot and route will be shared closer to the ride.

As always, be courteous to pedestrians and other road users.
