8 Ward Monthly Bike Tour with sPOKe Poughkeepsie

We meet in the parking lot of the Walkway on the Hudson (Poughkeepsie side) and typically ride about ten miles through all eight wards of the city on streets designated (but not yet marked) as local bike routes.

We ride at a conversational pace and stop occasionally to talk about points of interest along the way. Before each ride we discuss traffic laws and bicycle safety. The purpose of these rides is to promote cycling in the city, build a cycling community, and educate cyclists on safe riding techniques. Furthermore, the presence of a group of cyclists riding in a courteous manner on the roads helps to increase motorists’ awareness of our presence and helps both motorists and cyclists be more comfortable sharing the road.
