Metro Bike Share Community Ride: Koreatown

November 5, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Enjoy a four-mile fall ride to remember!

Explore Koreatown on quieter neighborhood streets and be sure to take note of the distinct architecture from block to block that features historic art deco buildings with terra cotta facades. Feeling hungry or thirsty? There are also plenty of locally owned restaurants on the route to explore before or after the ride!

This ride is “no-drop,” meaning we will maintain a comfortable and inclusive pace for all participants.

  • At 10:00 am, we will promptly begin introductions and safety check, along with ensuring everyone has a helmet and water bottle at no-cost.
  • From 10:15 am – 11:00 am, we will ride along the above route and back with quick photo and water stops.
  • From 11:30 am and on, we will return the bikes and for those interested, we will stop by a local ice cream shop! Please bring money if you would like to participate in the ice cream break or purchase additional snacks!
