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.
With the news that United States bombed Iran, we need revolutionary love, joyful resistance, solidarity, people power, and large, visible protests in the streets!
Our next recurring last Saturday of the month Boston #Ride4Republic is Sat. June 28th 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.
This ride we dedicate to joyful resistance! Bring your friends, co-workers, family, and neighbors to enjoy our resistance party on wheels.
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.
