- 2:30pm - Ride the Route with the Bike Temple–Join the Bike Temple as we ride the Sunday Parkways loop with the mobile shrine in tow.
Similar to Columbia's Cyclovia, Sunday Parkways takes popular and beautiful roads that are often overrun with cars and converts them into 6.6 miles of space for the people. The carfree streets connect a series of parks as well, so people are free to ride or walk from park to park without the hassle or danger of motorists on the roadway.
We hope to see you there!
