Next Family Bike Ride: Loantaka Bike Paths, Sunday, 6/27, 11 AM

SOMbike's next family bike ride will be on the wonderful bike paths in Loantaka Brook Reservation (on the Madison side) on Sunday, June 27th. We will meet in the parking lot on Laontaka Way, where Shunpike Rd. dead-ends. If you've ever been to St. Hubert's Animal Shelter, it's right near by. There is a picnic area off the parking lot, and after the ride, those that want to bring along a picnic, please do. Also, bring water, as there aren't places right near the reservation to buy stuff.
Meet-up: 11 AM in the Loantaka Way Parking Lot
