What to Expect

We'll begin with a warm welcome, e-bike fitting, and rider orientation before setting out together on a relaxed and scenic ride through the Pennypack watershed.

Along the way, we'll pause to reflect on the summer of 1776, when Philadelphia became the birthplace of a new nation and the Declaration of Independence set in motion an experiment in freedom that continues 250 years later. As we ride together through the landscapes of the Delaware Valley, we'll celebrate the people, places, and spirit that connect our communities today.
