What it is: The Monon Milestone Ride is an unofficial, grass roots, just for the fun of it bike ride that travels the round trip length of the Monon Trail/Greenway through Indianapolis, Carmel, and Westfield.
What it is NOT: A race. An excuse for bad manners on the Monon Trail. Officially sponsored by any institution, organization, or commercial enterprise.
When it is: Sunday, August 19, 2012 at 9:00 a.m.
Where it is: The ride begins at the Frank & Judy O'Bannon Old Northside Soccer Park at 1001 E. 16th Street, travels half a mile south to the trailhead at 10th Street, goes north all the way to 161st Street in Westfield, and returns to the O'Bannon Soccer Park. Please note that we will be taking the detour south of 146th Street because of the construction of the new Monon Pedestrian Bridge.
How far it is: 34 miles round trip.
How much it costs: ABSOLUTELY FREE! Well, you are responsible for your bike, helmet, food, and water. After that, it is absolutely free.
Why it is: To celebrate Indiana greenways, bicycling, comraderie, my birthday, and everyone's own personal achievements...not necessarily in that order.
Who I should contact: If you are interested in riding, please contact me at mononmilestone@gmail.com.
