Okay i picked a thursday cause i can ride and i know a few others. So lets make this night a Get together. all we have to do is decide which place. Im hoping there will be a Few of us so im oaky with the white pine or the Muskatawa or kent trail...
Would everyone mind if it was a mixed group of Peeps or you want this to be a trike only ? im thinking meet at trail head at 630 ? and then ride from there. Maybe even find a ice cream store someplace or resturant after for some lies.. I mean trike/bike talk.
So who is in ?

The more the merrier along as I'm not slowing down and speed-demon wedgie bikers. I've only have a few rids on my new Rover and having ridden a pedal bike more that a few times in the past 5 years or so.
My Rover fits nicely, even fully assembled, in the back of my Forester so anywhere within a reasonable drive from Grand Rapids is fine by me.
There is another group ride held bi-weekly by www.pedalgr.com. I've wanted to attend but did not have my Rover until a couple weeks ago. Looks like they go at a reasonable pace. Don't know how they feel about trikes.
Dont worry about pace its about Fun and getting to know each other. The only time pace comes into play is when i yell first one back to car buys icecream for the group.. then it really slows down hahahaha.
I rode with PedalGR and had a good time. I was the only trike. The organizers have a tandem with a recumbent seat up front and a wedgie seat in the back. About 25-30 people I'd guess. Roadies. Mt. bikes. Commuters. A folding bike--unfolded of course. A couple fixes--fixed gear bikes. Neat idea but I love to coast down the other side after a nice climb.

(started the Garmin late)
Went over a new bridge at about the 1 hour 15 min. mark on my ride. It was an old train bridge quite a distance over the Grand River. Nice benches in the middle. Not really open to the public since the south ramp up to it was not landscaped and not really open.
take the Ann street exit and go East. it will be only Parking lot on North side of road. Its as soon as you cross the Bridge. From the way it sounds we are going to have some riders showing up.
This will be a No drop ride i will ride with however needs a Partner.
I hope everyone can come. If someone needs a ride please give me a call at
