DETAILS


A Ride of Trails, Parks, and Hidden Gems

This easygoing ride is a perfect mix of bike paths, scenic parks, and quiet neighborhood roads. You'll start on a portion of the Burnt Bridge Creek Trail before stopping for a quick break at Pacific Community Park. From there, the route loops through Biddle Park before heading back to the start.

But the real highlight is a special stop at a secret, artsy neighborhood park called G-Squared. This hidden gem is a small but magical space boasting over 40 species of trees and flowers, making it a unique spot to explore!

Post-Ride Refreshments

After the ride, we can grab a bite or a drink at The Mill, the hub of restaurants at the start of the route (formerly known as Garrison Square). With plenty of delicious options, like Bless Your Heart Burgers, Thai House, and Ben's Bottle Shop, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!
