BFA 5 Summerfest Ride

BFA 5 Summerfest Ride 06-07-25
This is a new Arvada Festival and thus a new ride. We’ll meet at Ralston Park Addition, 11200 W 64th Ave, and depart at 9am. We’ll head south from the venue and catch the Van Bibber Creek Trail west then a few roads to Easley and Virgil then north to the Ralston Creek Trail and follow that east back to the festival site. Park at the BFA bike corral and enjoy the festival.

All riders are required to wear a helmet, follow bike safety and traffic laws, and sign a waiver. Our ride leaders will give a briefing 5 minutes before the ride begins and outline the route and other specifics for the day. So try to arrive at least 20 minutes before the ride begins to give yourself enough time to get ready.
What to bring:
• Your bike (in good working condition)
• Water, preferably a water bottle or camelback
• Your helmet
• Sunscreen
• Sunglasses (recommended to keep bugs and sunlight out of your eyes)
• Weather appropriate clothing
• A great attitude and sense of adventure

• Two Family Rides of approximately 4-7 miles traveling mostly on trails
• 22 Rec Ride of approximately 10-25 miles on a mix of trails and on street bike facilities
• We will also have a bike corral at several Arvada Festivals.
Signup on Meetup is encouraged but not a requirement. Come as you are and bring a guest or friend.
