Biker? I hardly know her!

OVERVIEW

Alright folks,

Burke and I just got off of a zoom meeting with chief, and long story short, he said this whole not having gone on a trip yet this semester thing just ain’t it. So it’s time we get back on the horse, and by horse I mean bike (duhhh).

Unless you closed your eyes on March 1st and decided to count to say twenty million five hundred sixty-three thousand two hundred, you’ve probably noticed that we’re in pandemic. That means this trip’s gotta be close by and our numbers gotta be smol. But fret not, we’ve got just the idea for a small trip which is certain to yield high levels of stoke, camaraderie and shivering.

Just across town, there’s a pretty pleasant strip of asphalt along the Rivanna river called Riverview Park. Rumor has it that somewhere along that pretty pleasant strip of asphalt is a super secret rope swing which, when used correctly, provides just the right amount of angular velocity for elegant aerial entrances into the crisp late-September waters of the Rivanna. So naturally, we’re gonna saddle up our bicycles and break a lil sweat to see what there is to see over at Riverview Perk.

You need bike? We got bike! … Probably. Just describe your gear needs in the questions.

If you lean in real close (don’t worry I’m wearing my homemade 100% hemp face covering and will maintain a distance of 6ft), I’ll tell ya the plan:
– Meet at shred shack
– Distribute bikes as necessary
– Bike ~4 miles to riverview park
– Explore stuff
– Swing via rope
– Come home at like 2 ish or whenever

You Bring:
– Bike if ya got it
– Helmet if ya got it
– Attire for water submersion purposes, just in case you hypothetically fall into the river
– Water
– Snacko
– Sturdy shoes
– your hoo’s health check and/or covidwise showing no confirmed exposure

We bring:
– hand sanny
