Ride Summary: Let’s welcome the lazy days of summer with a good old fashion quarry ride. We’ll load up with cold drinks and snacks and take a short ride over to Ft Dickerson for a refreshing float. Afterwards, those of us with the energy will roll over to Printshop (1532 Island Home Ave.).
Don’t forget to bring a bathing suit, a towel and maybe a change of clothing.
Challenge Level: Party Pace
Distance/Elevation: 5.7 mi/330 ft
Average Pace: 8-10 mph

Appropriate Bike: Any bike’ll do as long as it’s in good working order. The last bit towards the quarry is a gravel road, so something with bigger tires would be convenient.
Rider Expectations:
Sometimes the rides will NOT end where they begin. Plan ahead.
One day the world will be one giant greenway but for now we gotta be comfortable with sharing the road with cars.
These rides are always no-drop and very chill, but be prepared to ride 5-8 (sometimes hilly) miles.
Locks recommended. Lights encouraged. Helmets required
