After wheeling about for a half hour or forty-five minutes we return to Peralta Park, just across the street from our start, for light refreshments, a raffle, and general carousing.

 Edition 2, courtesy of AS&R member Megan Vieira!Abi wants to take us on a wild adventure this week, so get ready to follow the whims of a 2nd grader as she leads us on an adventure starting in Albany. Bring bikes, bells, helmets (required for kids, recommended for adults) and your favorite kid or kid-at-heart. We will start at the playground in the center of UC Village (Take Monroe off of San Pablo, park there if you’re driving, and bike West through parking lots to the playground officially on Gooding Way between Red Oak Ave and Ohlone Ave). We may not end at our starting point, but we will bike back with you in case you need directions back! Meet at 10 to play. Rolling at 11 sharp. Pack snacks and water for the ride, and a picnic lunch for the end. Rain cancels |
