Meets at 7pm - Rides at 7:30pm sharp!
8:30 PM
End location: Ramblin’ Rose Vegan Ice Cream (Ladd's)
** It's HOT! ** Due to the extremely hot weather this ride is being shortened to a 6 mile ride - we'll also start 30 min later (time is correct as it is currently posted.) This ride has also been changed to take advantage of more tree cover. HOT TIP: This ride ends at a Vegan Ice Cream Truck! Bring $$ for cold treats at the end of a warm ride. Love A Bowl will also be open, serving up delicious bowls & refreshing beverages. HOT TIP #2: Bring a bandana to get wet and ride with - it really helps to cool you off. We'll have a stop a Salmon Springs Fountain to get your bandana (or yourself) wet. Colors of the world - spice up your bike! Slam it to the left if you’re having a good time, shake it to the beat of the Spice Girls with a fabulous group of fans. Dress it up or dress down to boogie, because if u can’t dance to this you can do nothing for me baby. PLEASE BRING WATER / BEVERAGES! It's gonna be a warm one, so come prepared with hydration. There will not be any store stops; so be sure to bring all the water, sunscreen, and snacks you’ll want. We’ll have one dance spot (great for pictures), and the ride will end at a Ramblin’ Rose Vegan Ice Cream truck by Books with Pictures in Ladd’s, and just like last year we’ll host a special outdoor screening of the Spice World movie! Ride is not a loop but ride leader will ride back to Kenton (after the movie) and is happy to make stops along the way for folks that want to ride back home in a group. We aim to create a supportive and safer space for LGBTQIA+ folks. Sketchy folks, phobic remarks, or unsupportive behavior of any sort will not be tolerated. DJ bikes and speakers encouraged!

Route Map Link Below: - 6 mile route (shorter because of the heat) - Dance and Bathroom Stop at Salmon Street Springs Fountain - We'll take the Burnside Bridge! - No Store Stop - but we end at Ramblin' Rose Vegan Ice Cream & Love a Bowl Food Trucks!
