Swing Bridge Opening Weekend: Guided Bridge Ride with Bicycle Coalition

Take a spin on the new Schuylkill Crossings swing bridge with the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia! This guided round-trip bike ride will follow the Bartram’s Mile section of the Schuylkill River Trail from Bartram’s Garden across the new bridge. Bring your own bike or borrow one while supplies last (both adult and youth bikes available). The ride is approximately 1.6 miles and will last roughly one hour in duration, though participants are welcome to move at their own pace. Ride will take place entirely on the trail, including some sections of moderate incline. Ride will depart from the Bartram’s Garden Bike Hub. Participants on their own bikes may choose to continue through Grays Ferry Crescent after crossing the bridge. No registration necessary. In the event of severe weather, activities may be canceled or shortened.
