Ride is a loop
Jackfruit, durian, fresh lychees or mangosteen? Depends on what looks good at the fruit market this time of year, which is earlier than last year's ride! We’ll pool our funds ($5 per person) and ride to get some fruit to share, eat in the park and play a fruit-themed party game. Finally, we'll ride to a spot for chè--Vietnamese iced dessert drinks. Fruit costumes encouraged but not required! You may leave the ride early at any time, but we will be riding back to the starting point. Approximately 7 flat miles for the full loop or 4.5 miles from start to iced dessert drink store. Ride crosses major roads including SE Woodstock, Foster, Holgate and Powell, using lights and short stretches of sidewalk where possible. We will regroup after intersections if we are split up as corking not guaranteed. Cross only when safe, we'll wait! While no one will be left behind, kids should be supervised and able to keep up with leisurely paced adults. Bring water, sun protection and $5 cash (exact change) for the fruit fund.
