Option: bike-and-ride to Ciclovía Gonzales

As MacGregor Eddy wrote in her “We Could Car Less” 11/3/16 column in the The Salinas Californian: “Gonzales is the place to go for a safe, relaxed and scenic bicycle ride.” And Ciclovia Gonzales​ will be a very special day to experience Gonzales by biking, rolling in a wheelchair, walking, skateboarding, or what have you. As MacGregor demonstrated, Monterey-Salinas Transit​ even makes it possible to bike-and-ride to reach Gonzales. Check out the Sunday schedules on the MST website, and contact MST with any questions. MST’s Transit Tips include bike-loading instructions. For more bike-and-ride tips for MST on this site, click here.
