For the children:
Kidical Mass SPOKESPEOPLE Ride: Sundays are Special at the Library
March 24, 2013 – 1:00 p.m. – Wallingford Center

We’ll start in the front of Wallingford Center, make stops at Little Free Libraries in Wallingford where you can bring a book or take a book, and end at the Wallingford Library for a kid-friendly “Sundays are Special at the Library” celebration.

This is a perfect ride for children! Just three miles with minimal hills on Greenways and other slow family-friendly streets.


Find other easy rides

I’m all for riding fast on occasion, but easy group rides are great fun.

Do you know of other easy rides not covered by these calendars?
