Night Riders is a weekly bike ride every Tuesday night at 10 PM. We meet in the Hen-Lake liquor store parking lot (1200 W Lake St Minneapolis, MN 55408.) Our goal is to ride in mass to take back the bike trails that are rightfully ours that have become increasingly dangerous in the past couple of years (the greenway in particular.) each week we pick a destination to ride to and take bike trails all the way there (or as much as possible) and all in all have a good time. Lights suggested, drinking encouraged See you next Tuesday. -Jake

How many were in this group? I think I may have seen you guys heading west on the greenway near Lk. Calhoun around 10:45 or so.

There were 8 of us and that would be a potential sighting, though if so it was probably a bit earlier.
