Level C, 12-13 mph, 25 miles. Meet at Azalea Garden's formal entrance, behind the Art Museum. The ride leaves at 8:00 am. This is a ride through a section of the city not often explored by bicycle. We will ride under the Frankford El from Front and Girard up to Bridge Street. Along the way we will stop at some interesting places and examine some fascinating and forgotten Philadelphia history stretching from the late 1600's to the present. I think you will be amazed at some of the interesting things we'll be seeing. We will meet and leave from the entrance to the Azalea Garden behind the Art Museum at 8:00 and return by about noon. The ride is approximately 25 miles. The 8:00 am start is to beat the heat and to get underway while traffic is still light. The weather forecast for Saturday morning looks good. We will stop for a coffee/snack/rest room break midway through the ride at a nice little coffee shop in Frankford. This is a "C" pace ride (12-13 mph) but it is a challenging ride and is not for the faint-of-heart. You must be comfortable riding on city streets. Front Street is fairly wide, Kensington Avenue has a bike lane and Frankford Avenue has newly painted sharrows. Make sure your bike is in good mechanical condition as we will not be riding through the nicest part of town. Bring two spare tubes. If you have a flashing rear light - bring it. HELMET REQUIRED! No cue sheets. If you are driving to Art Museum, note that there is a 2-hour limit on parking in the lot behind the museum. Your best bet is to park on Sedgley Drive (the road that intersects Kelly Drive at Lloyd Hall) or on Midvale Avenue in East Falls (there is always plenty of street parking on Midvale near Henry Avenue) or in the public lot on Kelly Drive in East Falls located underneath the twin bridges (Route 1).
