Ride for Our Republic is a recurring pro-democracy bike ride on the last Saturday of the month. In the spirit of Paul Revere and on the 250th anniversary of the first American Revolution, we cycle together to sound the alarm of tyranny and fight for our democracy.
Our next recurring last Saturday of the month Boston #Ride4Republic is Sat. July 26th at 10am. We bike on a combination of bike paths and roads for a total of 12.7 miles, but you can join or end your ride at the waypoints where we network and rally. We will share a picnic lunch at the end of the ride.
Bring your friends, co-workers, family, and neighbors to enjoy our resistance party on wheels.
Please wear bright colors or neon. Make Pro-Democracy costume or signs for your bike frame, basket, shirt, or bag. Good Trouble Lives On and John Lewis quotes are perfect for this ride. We also have “We The People Means Everyone” banner and an American Flag to carry.
On Saturday we will meet at Paul Revere Park in Boston at 10am rain or shine.
Waypoints:
7 Hills Park Davis Square in Somerville at 10:45-11am
Uncle Sam Park in Arlington Center at 11:30-11:45am.
Ending Point: Minuteman Bikeway, Lexington Center, where we will eat a picnic lunch together.
Boston-Davis Sq 3.9 miles +
Davis Sq-Arlington Center 3.8 miles +
Arlington Center-Lexington Center 5 miles
Don’t forget water, snacks, packed lunch, sunscreen, bike lock, and other ride supplies.
Yours in Solidarity and Joyful Resistance!
