Last year, Laura Jane Grace and Tane from Tightwire joined the ride. This year, so far Sam Russo is coming.Meet at Depot Park behind the train station (where you came out of registration). Chill pace, 10 miles on paved trail through the wilderness. Make new Fest Friends and be back in time for the first shows of the day. You will feel great to start your Saturday of FESTING!
FAQ
1. Chill pace, 8-9mph
2. 9 mile round trip with lots of stops (literally just about anyone that can ride a bike at all can handle this.
3. Paved trail through nature. Mental reset before bands.
4. We are back before the first bands
5. We leave from the same place registration is
6. Goodbike rents bikes right from the starting point.
7. Fb marketplace or Craigslist is a good bet to buy a super cheap bike for the weekend then donate it when you leave.
8. Helmets recommended, especially if you are in a band that is playing!
9. If you bought a cheap bike to donate, we can donate to Bike 4 Vets which provides bikes to homeless veterans. From the founder:
“The Gainesville Cycling Club has Bikes 4 Vets project that rehabs donated bikes and provides them to formerly homeless vets who need them for transportation.
They can be dropped off in the driveway at 5015 NW 19th Place, or we can arrange to have them picked up.”
