A cruisey 9 mile, leisurely paced urban town ride. This ride is meant to be explorative and done with friends. Grab your crew and see what SLC has to offer. This route will take you through Liberty Park, then then 9th & 9th neighborhoods, up 800 S through a hospital parking lot, weaving amidst one of SLC's infamous hidden pocket parks, into the Aves and landing you in downtown to connect with "The Gold Line". We promise you'll see zones of SLC you never new existed. Ending at Washington Square, you're sure to be giggling with your friends after this one. Difficulty: easy Time: about 2 hours (leisurely pace) Surfaces: concrete Ideal bike: any bike is good, but the one you have is best! Mtn, road, commuter, town, and gravel bikes all good. Ideal speed: the route is best at a leisurely pace, although riding faster will give it more flow. Riding slower allows you to soak in all the nooks and crannies. Safety: this route mainly uses existing bike infrastructure but at times utilizes parking lots, side walks, and alley ways. You will be riding close to cars, be aware and always ride defensively. Points of interest: Loki Coffee, Liberty Park, 9th & 9th, Salt Lake Regional Medical Center, Victory Park, 1st Ave Cafe, Beer Bar, Gallivan Center, MonkeyWrench Ice Cream, ROCTACO, State Liquor Store, Washington Square, City Library. Downsides: there are four busy intersections that need to be navigated with care and safety.
