Most activities will be along the farm lane at the north end of the big red barn. Car traffic on the farm lane between the two entrances will be limited to allow riders to enjoy their ride. Limited parking will be able near the barn, using the the SOUTH ENTRANCE near the pond. Additional parking is available, using the NORTH ENTRANCE (between the pillars) with parking in the hayfield on your right when you enter the farm. From there, you can walk or bike along the farm lane to the festivities near the barn!
WANT TO BIKE FROM BEACON? The Beacon Bicycle Coalition is leading a group ride to the Farm along Red Schoolhouse Road for experienced riders. To join this ride, meet near the Dummy Light in Beacon at 9am on Saturday morning. For ride updates, check the Beacon Bicycle Coalition Instagram Page.
SHARE YOUR RIDE! A big part of this event is about helping people get excited about bikes and cycling. If you have an interesting or unusual bike or pedaling contraption that you want to show off, bring it along! If you want to, you can even check your ride into our test ride station to let others try it out during the event.
