Happy Bike Month! 🚲✨
While officially @MayisBikeMonth , every month feels like Bike Month on the American River Parkway. We’re so lucky to have all 32 miles of scenic trails right in our backyard, and there’s truly no better way to soak up the views than from the seat of a bike.
As you head out to enjoy a ride, let’s keep the vibes high by looking out for one another. Stay safe by:
🚲sticking to the designated bike paths
🚲 wearing your helmet
🚲 and giving a friendly “on your left” whenever you’re passing neighbors on the trail
Let’s keep it fun, stay hydrated, and enjoy every mile! See you out on the Parkway🚴♂️☀️
