Biking to Conshy Brewery to meet up with XNM (22 miles RT) only 30 spots
Details
Join us as we ride the Schuylkill River Trail (SRT) from Lloyd Hall at Boathouse Row to the Conshohocken Brewery to meetup with the Xplore N More group - about 11 miles each way
Limiting this to 30 as XNM will have 30 and we don't want to overrun the place
WILL CANCEL FOR RAIN, RAIN DATE IS WED JUN 10
We'll be at the Brewery for about an hour or enough for 2 beers (they close at 8)
XNM will be riding from the KOP area - if you'd rather start there, you can RSVP to that event here:

We'll be riding in the dark coming back so make sure you have some kind of lights with you - bike and/or head lamps!
This stretch of the SRT is mostly paved but has a couple miles section of gravel and boardwalk. Most bikes are ok with this but for road bikes that have very thin tires, you may want to plan to take a detour around that section*
We ride at about 12-14 miles an hour
and usually stop 2-3 times during this ride to let stragglers catch up, but we don't stop for too long
if you're really far behind, you'll just have to catch us at the brewery
Meet outside the public restrooms at Lloyd Hall at 6pm, we'll be riding by 6:10, so if you're late, you'll have to catch up
Note about parking; due to the FIFA cup festivities going on at Lemon Hill the month of June, parking is not available on Sedgely Drive or Lemon hill. Parking at the Art Museum outside lot is still available but may be busy. I would consider alternate parking area for those driving in for this...lots of parking along Pennsylvania Ave, Fairmount Ave or other streets in that area. It's only like 1/2 mile from Lloyd Hall but make sure to give yourself enough time to find parking and bike over.
