This is an absolutely fun ride and recommended for everybody – young, old, experienced cyclists, newbies! It’s the annual Moonlight Classic that draws a diverse crowd of participants and spectators alike. A midnight bike ride by the light of the moon topped off with breakfast – what else is there to say? It’s a fun ride through a 10-mile, closed street course through Downtown Denver, Lodo and Cherry Creek starting and ended at the Colorado State Capitol Building.

The fun is THIS Saturday at midnight and you can get all the details online. Be sure to wear a helmet and don’t forget front and back lights for the bike. Oh, and make sure the lights work – a dead battery made for a hectic start for me a few years back.
Don’t have a bike? Well, let me introduce you to the Denver B-cycle bike sharing program. these are those bike stations you’ve probably seen all around town with the red bikes. Well, you can rent a B-cycle for the duration of the Moonlight Classic. :: Love This :: Okay, so now you have no excuses – get out there and enjoy the sweet summer night with your fellow Denverites. Happy Trails.
Loving Denver Life,
