SLP'ing Out - A Virtual Bike Ride
Come Take A Virtual Bike Ride with Mr & Mrs Bikey!  

Our route today will be 23 miles.  

It will start on the Cedar Lake Trail heading towards downtown.  

When we get downtown, we will ride the bike lanes on Hennepin Ave and see all the sites to see.  

Then we head across the river, past the Nicollet Island Inn, cross to Riverplace on the 1887 Victorian Bridge, ride the cobble-stoned Main St and cross back over the river on Stone Arch bridge viewing St Anthony Falls.  

Then we'll go past the new Guthrie Theater, on our way to the bike trail that runs alongside the Hiawatha LRT.  

After the LRT trail, we will continue our ride on the Greenway Trail, riding past Lake Calhoun and Lake of the Isles.

We then pedal our way to Hopkins on the Southwest LRT trail, then on the Hutchinson Spur trail as it heads north from the Hopkins Depot Coffee Shop.  

Kids playing at Aquila Park can be seen along our finishing miles.  

Thank you for coming with us on a ride today!  

Come on along again any time!

We'll always be ready to ride again right here - just waiting for you to join us!
