Hey everyone, how are you today on this beautiful day? Is there anyone in the Holmesburg area that likes to bike ride? Cause I'm always biking by myself and no one seems to ever want to do it. I'm right across from pennypack park and then I go to 2 other pennypack parks. But I ride a nice distance and then I work out in the park with weigh bands and stuff like that or do body weight exercises. So let me know if anyone is interested, maybe we could meet up and have a bike ride. Let me know. Thank you. Enjoy your day!!

    I'd come cycling with you but Philadelphia is a little far for me - I'm from Sheffield, UK.

    It is great to cycle with friends. Are there any local cycling groups around your way? In the UK we have one called CTC - which covers all levels. Not sure if you have something similar.

    You could check with some local bike shops. THey often have group rides, er maybe not so much these days, but they still might have some suggestions.

    I'm in coastal NJ. Try meetup.com for cycling in you area. The Bicycle Club of Philadelphia, too. Also, on FB, "The Circuit Trails" and the "Bicycle Coalition of Philadelphia." You have a ton of riding opptys in Phila and surrounding area. The "Circuit," btw, extends into NJ, which is how I know of it. Another thing is the "Get Your Tail On The Trail" program sponsored by one of the big Phila-area health systems, that might have some loosely-organized group things. Hope this helps.

    Sigh, the bike riding community is one of the best out there! Look at all this support! 😭

    @bullseye78 You have a great exercise regime there! Hope you're able to find your group (virtual or real life) soon. I'm with you in spirit on Montréal's bike trials! 🚴🏿‍♀️
