Roll The Dice Ride

Monday, June 20, 2016 at 7:30pm. Ride will roll at 8pm

By: MikeA ride led by chance. Big dice are rolled to determine how many blocks to ride, and which direction to turn once we get there (ie: Odd total = Turn right, Even = left). Last year's ride roamed East Vancouver and happened upon ice cream and jungle gyms. This year the ride moves to a new part of town. What adventures will Lady Luck find for us this time? Since dice don't understand the concept of designated bike routes,  riders should be pretty comfortable on city streets. Pace will be casual with short stops at anything interesting we come across.
