9:30 AM, Thursday, September 14, 2023

Join Karl Martz for a trail ride on the west, south and north sections of the Capital Area Greenbelt. This ride avoids hills! Meet at 9:15 AM at the Green Street extension where it joins North 6th Street in Harrisburg. This location is where Interstate 81 passes over North 6thStreet. The ride will start promptly at 9:30 AM. We will ride the Greenbelt south into Harrisburg and then east from Steelton to the parking lot across from the Five Senses Garden behind the Harrisburg Mall. After reaching the Gardens we will turn around and ride back west to Penn DOT, and then go north up the river along the trail to our starting point. If riders want to, we may ride one loop around City Island. Helmets are required.
