    Loop Ride is a loop

    Happily once more we ride to see the Swifts at Chapman elementary school. If you’ve not witnessed this spectacle, what happens is a huge flock of swifts gather and move like a schoal of fish above us before descending into the chimney at the school. The route will be very safe as we traverse downtown upto the Alphabet district. We’ll be on greenways and avoiding any hub bub. Please make sure you have snacks and blankets as we might be waiting 30 minutes for the swifts to show. They’re on their timetable not ours. There’s a huge amount of people at the school usually, but there’s places you can hang out if the crowds are too much for you. As with all our rides we actively practice consent and non-violence towards our neighbors in cars. Not a sober ride but please be mindful of smoking anything near children present. Banned riders are banned here too.
