In August, Geared4Kids will join up with Rich City Rides and have another family bike ride in Richmond. We had a great ride a year ago and especially enjoyed seeing the sights along the Richmond Greenway. We’re going back again this summer for more. If you joined us last year, join us again this year and see how much the Edible Forest has grown in the last year. If you didn’t join us last year, do it this year. You’ll be glad you did.
They will be meeting at Richmond City Hall on Nevin between 25th and 27th. Richmond BART is the nearest BART station.
We will gather starting at 10:30am and will ride out at 11:00am.
Helmets required for kids.
Be sure to pack snacks, water, and clothing appropriate to weather conditions!
Join AS&R’s friends & neighbors at Rich City Rides for the Opening Day of Trails ride!

We can’t wait for spring—and here’s why! On April 8, 2017, people across the country will celebrate the nation’s fifth annual Opening Day for Trails. Rich City RIDES (RCR) and Rails-to-Trails Conservancy have teamed up to present Opening Day for Trails in Richmond. Bring your family and friends for a bike ride event where you’ll extend your pedal-powered reach to fun destinations like the Richmond Greenway and Unity Park’s Groundbreaking event!
Come join us for a fun ride on the trails!
Opening Day for Trails is a free event open to all ages! Come join us for a bike ride 
with a purpose, learn how you can be healthier, and create a healthier Bay Area by engaging in human-powered transportation. For new bike riders, don’t fret! Our ride marshals will help in coordinating two rides based on your level of comfort. We hope you’ll join us on Opening Day—and we can’t wait to see you out on the trail this spring!
Bike Giveaways! To start the ride, we will give away 10 free bikes to kids participating in the event. At the end of the ride, 3 participants will receive free bikes based on their active participation in other RCR bike rides. For an additional opportunity to win prizes be sure to sign Rails-to-Trails Conservancy’s official 2017 Opening Day pledge to get out on the trail! You can be entered to win special prizes from Fuji Bikes and Performance Bicycle for your next trail adventure.
