Concord’s Trinity Episcopal Church Bike Club

This club was established as a way for parishioners of Trinity Episcopal Church to get together on a Sunday afternoon for a pleasant bike ride.  Local rail trails are a safe way to ride bikes at your own pace for any distance you choose.  This is a great way for kids, teenagers, parents, couples and individuals to enjoy a New England outdoor activity.  It is a good way to get to know other parishioners, have fun, and fulfill some of your required weekly cardiovascular requirements.  

We usually start the season off with a night in the Parish Hall for tune-ups.  Parishioners Brian and Sally McInnis have been kind to offer their services to tune-up our bikes.  Brian takes time from his bike shop in Medford, JRA Cycles (Just Riding Along Cycles) to make sure the gears and tires are ready for our adventures.

Starting in April we’ll meet at 1:30 PM on a Sunday afternoon in a designated parking lot of one of the rail trails.  Don’t forget to bring your helmets and a bike in good working condition. Inclement weather cancels the event. You and your family can ride at your own pace and for any distance you desire.  Most of the trails are 10 miles one way. There is usually an ice cream shop along the trail or nearby so bring some change for a scoop or two.  Let Patricia or John know if you are interested so they can look out for you. Below is the 2012 season schedule and instructions on how to get to the parking lots.
