I am forwarding information relating to a family friend bike ride - This event is a cooperative effort of Bike Coconut Grove, Friends of the Commodore Trail, the Coconut Grove Business Improvement District, and the City of Miami Police Department Coconut Grove Team.
The family-friendly bike rides with a special City of Miami police escort originally scheduled for April 16 and May 21 (both on Wednesday at 5 p.m.) have been rescheduled. Instead, there will be one ride on Saturday, April 26, at 10 a.m.
Meet at the Coconut Grove Playhouse parking lot on Main Highway and get ready to pedal Coconut Grove's streets with the City of Miami local law enforcement bicycling team.
The ride will begin at 10 a.m. and will take approximately 90 minutes. It’s free to all. To join, register here.
It's a great opportunity to spend quality time with your loved ones while enjoying a safe and organized bike ride. Don't miss out on this exciting event - bring your bikes, helmets, and smiles!
How to celebrate is simple: ride a bike anywhere and for any reason today. Ride to the store to complete a chore. Ride a bike with a friend to gossip about your weekend. Ride a bike on a trail or to the mall to check out a sale. We’re not saying you have to go full green eggs and ham but just #bikethere!
I’m currently taking part in the Love to Ride Florida challenge - a month-long biking challenge with great prizes including a $500 prize bundle. A quick bike ride is all it takes to start earning points and get entered into prize drawings!
Are you ready? This event is a FREE (of charge) leader-led bike ride on paved, gravel and grass trails connecting two of South Florida's beautiful national parks: Biscayne National Park and the Everglades National Park. Ride all or part to see at least one of these great parks!
This ride offers 3 distances to choose from: 42 Miles - For Strong, Performance Cyclists (most of this route is on gravel & grass trails - tough!) 22 Miles - For Fit, Recreational Cyclists 14 Miles - For Casual Cyclists
Pace will depend on the group but groups usually break down to fast, moderate, and slower smaller groups. You will not be left behind!
