Don’t hang up that bike just yet! Join us for a 17-18 mile loop around the trails in South Minneapolis. You could even make it a whole day of biking. Volunteer at the Free Bikes 4 Kids event in the morning and get on your own bike in the afternoon.
The route includes:
Minnehaha Parkway Trail
West River Parkway Trail
The Greenway
The eastern sides of Lakes Calhoun (Mde Maka Ska) and Harriet
A stop for snacks and coffee at the Midtown Global Market, just off the Greenway

Meet at:
Lake Nokomis Community Center
2401 E Minnehaha Parkway
Minneapolis, MN 55417
We’ll leave about 1:30 and return by 4:30.
Bring a bike lock for our stop at Midtown Global Market and $$ if you are planning to snack. Be sure to dress for the weather and bring warm gloves and covering for your ears regardless of temps. Helmets required.
*Note: The forecast at the time of trip submission is for a beautiful sunny afternoon. If that changes substantially the trip may be cancelled (because who enjoys biking in a cold November rain?). Watch the Yahoo group if the weather is questionable on Saturday and keep those fingers crossed!
