Join hundreds of fellow Arcadians of all ages and skill levels for the annual free Community Bike Ride at 7:30 a.m. Saturday, May 5, coordinated by the City of Arcadia Recreation and Community Services Department. The leisurely ride through seven miles of residential streets led by Arcadia Police begins and ends at the Community Center, 365 Campus Dr. Check in begins at 7:30 a.m., with the ride to begin at 8 a.m. after a brief safety overview.
The first 50 participants will receive a free t-shirt and ticket to the Arcadia’s Firefighters Pancake Breakfast that otherwise costs $5 and runs from 7 a.m. to 12 noon across the street from the Community Center at Fire Station 106 on the northeast corner of Baldwin Avenue and Huntington Drive.
Helmets are required for the bike ride, which takes place rain or shine. Although this ride will be at a slow pace, younger riders wishing to participate will need to keep up with the group pace. Children under the age of thirteen will need to be accompanied by an adult. Bikes with training wheels are not permitted.
No registration necessary. For more information contact the Recreation office at 574-5113 or go on-line to the City of Arcadia’s website: ci.arcadia.ca.us.
