Join us on Saturday, Sept 27th for a fun, free waterway bike tour around the Legacy Loop in Colorado Springs. This tour will connect community members to local water and recreation resources through an approximately 10 mile, mostly flat pedaling tour.
***Registration is required***
Our final stop on the tour will be Shooks Park, located directly across the street from the COS Sustainacenter ride start location. We will have pizza and drinks available for the presentation and post-ride social time.
Both tour days start at the COS Sustainacenter with convenient parking and facilities. The ride will follow the Legacy Loop trail system, starting along Shooks Run with the first planned stop at Concrete Coyote. We will connect to the Pikes Peak Greenway after transiting through the Enchanted Forest and will make our way around the ‘Loop, stopping at a number of locations where you’ll hear from local content experts.
• What are the Shooks Run, Monument Creek, Fountain Creek, and Arkansas River watersheds?
• Why is water quality important? What is stormwater?
• How is Colorado Springs conserving water and planning for future water supply?
• How are our community partners connecting neighborhoods to trails and creeks?
• How can maintaining pipes allow us to restore creeks?
• How do we ensure waterways are healthy? How can you protect stream health?
We thank our partners at the City of Colorado Springs Stormwater Enterprise, Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services, Colorado Springs Utilities, Concrete Couch, Friends of Monument Valley Park, and the Middle Shooks Run Neighborhood Association for making this tour possible.
This free ride would not be possible without the generous financial sponsors of the Colorado Stormwater Council, Dewberry, and Colorado Springs Utilities.
While most of the route is on paved and hard-packed surfaces, the transit through the Concrete Coyote and Enchanted Forest properties is on somewhat rough surfaces. Hence, a bike with wider tires and appropriate footwear for walking short distances are most appropriate.
Helmets are required, and we recommend sunscreen and water. Each day will be limited to 30 riders. Riders must be 18 years old or older. Register in advance to ride.
