The day will begin at 8:30 a.m. at Race Street Pier where we’ll enjoy a complimentary breakfast from Rowhouse Grocery, do safety checks, and sign waivers. We will then hop on our bicycles to start the ride. Along the way, we’ll hear representatives from each organization who will tell us about the history and the focus of their current work. We’ll end our ride around 2:00p.m. where we’ll enjoy a fantastic lunch at One Art Community Center.
