Itinerary:

Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.

~ Albert Einstein

So let's keep moving, on our bikes!

We'll ride the Forsyth Big Creek Greenway for 6.8 miles each way with a twist, we'll segway thru Fowler Park to add an additional 2 miles and get closer to 16 miles.

We'll meet at the Forsyth Big Creek Greenway on Bethelview/141. We'll ride from the trailhead to Fowler Park and then onto McFarland, keeping a moderate pace of 12-14 mph. The return trip will be straight thru to the trailhead.

I will be leading a hike Little Ridge Park after the ride, please consider joining both. They are relatively close to each other.
