Downtown Redding to Farmers Market at City Hall

The ride will start at the new Shasta County Courthouse, 1515 Court St, Downtown Redding. Before departing, we will discuss ways to transport items for going to work or to accomplish bike errands. This ride will take us through downtown and the Garden Tract neighborhood to the Parkview neighborhood where we will stop at the Farmers Market located on the backside of Redding City Hall. We will take some time to shop at the market and then return to the Courthouse. Two lucky riders will win a $10 gift card to the Farmers Market. We will return downtown in time for the Redding Rodeo Parade.

This is the last ride in a series of Bike Abouts –beginner friendly rides to learn how to explore your neighborhood and community by bike. Whether you want to do a quick errand by bike, ride to school or work, or just get out to enjoy nature, these rides are for you! The rides in this series will feature safety tips for riding in traffic, let you experience the comfort of riding in a group, and familiarize you to routes that may be different from motor vehicle routes. We will provide a bike pump, so if your tires need air, come a little early. Please make sure you have a bike in good working order, bring a water bottle and helmet (required for rides). Rides will be conducted by Anna Blasco and Sara Sundquist, Certified League of American Bicyclist Instructors. All riders will be entered into a drawing for prizes. Ride will be cancelled if heavy rain. Be safe, follow the rules of the road, and have fun! Sign up for one or all of the rides HERE.
