Gresham Family Ride

Description

This is a fun ride designed for the whole family! It travels at a slow pace (not more than 10 mph) on bike paths free from auto traffic. The ride will be led and chaperoned by two seasoned bike riders. The route is approximately 8 ½ miles and passes interesting Gresham sites. The ride begins at the parking lot at Gresham’s Main City Park. After a brief visit to Gresham’s Japanese Garden, we will travel west on the Springwater Trail to the Gresham-Fairview Trail and follow that to Halsey Street. We then retrace our route, stopping near 201st and Burnside for a snack at the new food carts. We then travel the new Wy’East Trail, which takes us back to Gresham City Center and Main City Park. We will make a very brief stop at the new Gresham Mural Project on the Wy’East Trail. Children must be accompanied by an adult and all riders must wear approved helmets. This is a great introduction to the fun of bike riding and will include some information about safe bicycling.
