**CANCELLED** Showin' a little love for 2nd Cycle! (Old Town Bicycle, Gig Harbor)
Ride Contact
Event has already happened.
Love local bike shops & non-profit community bike centers? ME TOO! Two of my favorites are teaming up for a great cause - getting gently used bikes, bike parts and accessories back into circulation. Old Town Bicycle is hosting an off site bike drive for 2nd Cycle in the parking lot of their Gig Harbor location. Bring your old bikes for the bike drive and your new ones for a ride! So as not to take up space in their parking lot, we'll meet at the Kimball Park and Ride, just down the street from Old Town Bicycle. From there, we'll take a take a scenic ride over the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and pass by 2nd Cycle's storefront in Tacoma. We'll return to the start via North Tacoma. (Route linked below, feel free to download and/or print a copy of the cue sheet if desired)
