Lenexa Moonlight Bike Ride
July 20, 2019 @ 9:00 pm - 11:59 pm
Building on the great success of our new route, the Moonlight Bike Ride is back for our 24th year with a family-friendly route that includes the rider-favorite loop underground!
Come join hundreds of other riders to experience this unique ride. The Moonlight Bike ride continues to gain in popularity, with many riders and volunteers returning year after year. We anticipated another great turnout in 2019 with 700-800 riders anticipated.
The Lenexa Optimist Club continues to partner with the Lenexa Parks and Recreation Department to present the 24th Lenexa Moonlight Bike Ride on July 20, 2019. We have an extended route with a few extra miles and are making some tweaks designed to continue to improve the ride.
This family-friendly 12-mile bicycle ride on Lenexa streets starts in Old Town Lenexa at 10:00pm and includes a loop underground through the Meritex caves, just west of Renner Boulevard.
An optional “all you can eat” pancake feed provides a fun late night breakfast after the ride. Pre-event entertainment is planned during check-in for the ride along with the pre-ride “Light the Night” contest. Pancake feed after the ride is $6 per person.
SAG support will provide transportation back to the start/end location for riders unable to complete the ride.
A helmet, front light and rear reflector are required to ride.
“LIGHT THE NIGHT” CONTEST:
Decorate yourself and your bike! Get creative and light up the night.
Judging at 9:30 p.m. in the ride staging area.
Decorations must allow participant to ride safely or must be removed before the ride starts.
