Join us and explore the Lake Minnetonka LRT Regional Trail! Stretching 15 miles between Hopkins and Carver Park, this aggregate trail offers scenic views of Lake Minnetonka and passes through several small towns, including Excelsior and Victoria. We will bike out to Victoria, where we will have lunch at the Dairy Queen before heading back to Hopkins. For those who are interested, we will adjourn to LTD Brewing in Hopkins for a cold one at the end of the ride. Because this is an aggregate trail, the biking will be a little rougher. Ask if you have concerns. Meet at the public parking on 9th Avenue North between Main Street and 1st Street North in Hopkins. Total length is 30 miles, but you could turn around earlier if you wanted to shorten the route. Bring water and snacks. (Bring your lunch or buy it at the DQ.) We’ll depart at 10:00, so plan to be there earlier to pump up your tires and do other prep work. Helmets required. Moderate pace: 10-12 m.p.h. Email us to let us know you’re coming and for a map/directions to the parking lot.
