This special event offers participants three options to get active:
Walking Group
Beginner Bike Ride (led by ride leaders from Thrive Mahoning Valley)
Advanced Bike (offered in partnership with the Thursday Night Bike Ride group)
Bike Ride Options:
Beginner riders may choose to try a YoGo e-bike during a short 3-mile ride through downtown Youngstown and YSU campus’ bike infrastructure. The cost of the e-bike rental will be covered by the Healthy Community Partnership. The ride will take approximately 30 minutes.
Advanced riders are invited to join a 21-mile ride, lasting about 1.5 hours, led by Michael Billock and the Thursday Night Bike Ride group. We encourage advanced, experienced cyclists to participate in this ride who feel comfortable riding on the road in a group and through Mill Creek Park. YoGo E-Bike rentals will not be available for the advanced ride. Cyclists for this ride should expect to bring their personal E-Bike or traditional bike for this ride
Helmets are required for all riders.
Walking Group:
Participants who choose to walk will enjoy a relaxed community stroll through downtown Youngstown led by a walk leader.
All groups will finish at the Downtown Youngstown Farmers Market in the back parking lot of the Main Library. For this special event only, we will be offering the first 40 riders and walkers an increased voucher for the market of $10, redeemable exclusively at the Downtown Youngstown Farmers Market.
