Roll Along the Mohawk

Join Cycle Schenectady this coming Monday, August 26, for another of our family-friendly summer ride series. This ride will take us to Rotterdam Junction, exploring two new bicycle infrastructure improvements along the way: the contra-flow lane on Washington Avenue in the Stockade, and the paved trail on the Glenville side of the river. There will also be a stop at Jumpin’ Jacks for ice cream.
The route is mostly flat and the pace will be casual; the round trip of 10 miles should take around an hour and half.
All are welcome. Helmets are required, and kids must be at least 12 years old and accompanied by an adult. Meet in front of Druthers at Mohawk Harbor. Ride will start at 6 p.m.
