DESTINATION: This Sunday, April 5 bike train / social ride’s destination is the 11am Easter service at solar-powered, bike-friendly (bike rack by sanctuary’s front door) First Presbyterian Church, 501 El Dorado, Monterey (https://fpcmonterey.org/, a Presbyterian Church USA congregation https://pcusa.org/about-pcusa/who-we-are/social-witness).

If you’d like to do that social ride but prefer to skip the church service, no problem. Just continue on with your day. Or, if you wish, you’re welcome to hang out in the Jay Bartow Memorial Garden during the service and stick around to enjoy coffee, tea, and Easter breads, etc. after the service. Note: There’s a 9am service too, with refreshments also provided following that service (i.e., refreshments will be provided between services, 10-11am, as well as refreshments provided after 11am service).

All minors on this bike ride must be accompanied by a parent or adult guardian. Everyone rides at their own risk, and those biking with us are to follow California bike laws, including helmet requirement for minors; helmets are encouraged for adults too.
