BFA 14 Community Garden Ride

BFA 14 Community Garden Ride 08-09-25
A very popular ride, it starts at 9am at the Arvada Community Garden at 57th and Garrison then visits several other community gardens—Common Earth, Rose Roots, Little Sprouts, North Arvada Middle School--in Arvada before returning to the Arvada Community Garden for a tour. The history of each garden is discussed.

GPS Route
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
