Bike Carmel Returns in 2018 with 5 Rides
Carmel, IN – Are you looking for a way to get outside a little more this summer?  Hitting the paths and trails in Carmel, Indiana is one of the easiest (and most fun) things you can do with your family!The City of Carmel’s Bike Carmel events are designed to give riders a chance to experience many of the less traveled multi-use paths and trails throughout the City including their beautiful views.
FAMILY FUN RIDE – May 12, June 9, August 11; 10 a.m. – These family- friendly rides take place on Saturday mornings, each beginning at 10 a.m. with registration, followed by a short safety seminar at 11 a.m. and then the ride rolls out.
At these events, we’ll show you and your children the proper way to wear a helmet, the best ways to be visible to others when you’re out and most importantly, the rules of the road. We’ll also make sure you’re properly sized for your bike. After the demonstration, we’ll put those brand new skills to the test and head out for a three-to-five mile route on Carmel’s best multi-use paths and trails.
Plan to stick around after the ride for free caricatures, face painting and the Carmel Clay Mobile Library. Carmel residents will be able to sign up for a free public library card while they’re here. More vendors will be on site with chances to win great prizes!
