Biking to Hiking (about 16 miles RT on bike and 3 easy miles hiking)

Details

We are going to ride the 8 miles along the Schuylkill River Trail from LLoyd Hall to the Schuylkill Center (https://schuylkillcenter.org/)
and then hike 3 miles through the center - pretty easy hike
and then bike 8 miles back

Will cancel for rain - rain date is Wed Jul 16

Note that we'll be riding through Manayunk on the street with traffic for a little bit and then on the tow path which is a mix of gravel and boardwalk - road bike have been ok on this but make sure you know that ahead of time

Meet outside the LLoyd Hall bathrooms at 6:15, riding by 6:30
we ride about 12-13 miles an hour
we hike about 3 miles and hour

MAKE SURE TO BRING A HEADLAMP AND BIKE LOCK - we'll be locking our bikes up outside the environmental center
and we'll be biking back in the dark - we SHOULD be done with the hike before dark though, but good to have a light just in case
