Next ride scheduled for July 8
Bike Your Neighborhood (BYN), the casual community bike ride for all ages and abilities, is centered in the Buckeye-Shaker, Larchmere, Ludlow, Mt. Pleasant & Woodland Hills neighborhoods. Its next ride is Saturday, July 8, 2023.
The group gathers at 11a and the ride begins at 11:30a from “The Gazebo”, 12805 Drexmore Rd [44120]. An overflow parking lot is located behind Dave's Supermarket Shaker Square. Free rental bikes are available with valid I.D. at 11a.
“We launched Bike Your Neighborhood on June 3 with much success,” says Deidre McPherson, BYN community organizer. About 50 riders, some who hadn't been on a bike in years, participated.
“Our goal is to encourage community connections and active living,” McPherson adds.
BYN aims to have a “celebrity guest” on each ride. St. Luke’s Foundation Executive Director Tim
Tramble accompanied the group on the June ride. County Executive Chris Ronayne will join
BYN for the July ride, while Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb has committed to join the August 12 ride.
“We hope to confirm Cleveland Councilman Blaine Griffin for September,” says McPherson.
Rides are typically scheduled for the second Saturday of each month. On Monday, October 9, BYN will team up with Slow Roll Cleveland for a 10-mile ride departing from Shaker Square. All are welcome to join the ride.
