Biking to Conshy Brewery to meet up with XNM (22 miles RT)

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
We'll be at the Brewery for about 45 minutes 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: https://www.meetup.com/xplorenmorephilly/events/306917510

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 6:15, so if you're late, you'll have to catch up

*detour - if you don't want to do the gravel/boardwalk section of the SRT that most of us will take...
the gravel/boardwalk section starts at the intersection of Lock St and Main St in Manayunk
instead of taking the canal path, stay on Main Street until Leverington Ave, turn right onto Leverington, then immediate left onto Umbria, follow Umbria (big hill) until it meets with Shawmont Ave, then take the sharp left onto Shawmont Ave and regroup with the group at the Shawmont Station at the bottom of the hill
