Bike to the Balloon Fiesta
Saturday, Oct 5: Bike to the Balloon Fiesta. 5:45 a.m.-10:00 a.m. Want to experience the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta morning mass ascension but don't want the hassle of fighting traffic? Join us for your own dawn patrol bike ride to Balloon Fiesta Park. We will meetup near Rio Grande Nature Center State Park and ride along the bosque to the park. When we arrive at the park, well leave our bikes with the bike valet and enjoy the show. Well then return via the bosque on both paved and single-track trails. Multispeed road, mountain or gravel bikes, or e-bikes with wider tires and tire sealant are required. Helmet, gloves, headlamp and/or bike light are required. Add lots of lights and colors to you and your bike to increase the fun and visibility quotient. Riders should have the ability to average 10-12 mph and stay up with the group. E- bikes are ok. Just over 11 miles each way and less than 100 feet of elevation change. will do bosque trail to paseo del norte trail to north channel trail, so almost no roads (approx 3 road crossings). Sponsored by the Sierra Club Military Outdoors Program and everyone is welcome. Register no later than September 27 at the link provided.
