Bike Ride to Earth Day Festival Sun Apr. 13, 9:30 a.m. - noon
Ditch the car for Earth Day and ride to the Earth Day Festival at Balloon Fiesta Park! Avoid traffic and experience the lowest emissions transportation available! (an average bike's manufacturing emissions are offset after riding 430 miles instead of driving, see https://www.trekbikes.com/us/en_US/the-rule-of-430/)

We'll start from Montgomery Park and ride up the diversion channel, enjoy the fair (be sure to visit the Sierra Club Zero Waste Action Team table!) and return to the starting point.

There is no cost to participate in the bike ride, but the Earth Day Fair admission tickets are $5 for adults and free for children under 18.
A road-suitable bike and helmet are required. Tire sealant and bike lock are strongly recommended. Snacks, water and any necessary health and comfort items desired.
