Please join us for a casual group ride with fellow 2023 Friends of the Ferry campaign donors, Ferry volunteers, and Local Motion staff and Board members to celebrate this year’s opening day of the Bike Ferry! Find our Interactive Island Line Trail Map atlocalmotion.org/routemaps and visit localmotion.org/bike_ferry for any weather-related bike ferry closure or delay announcement. We hope you’ll consider decking out yourself or your bike with lights, colorful streamers, bells, or whatever brings you joy! Be sure to wear weather-appropriate clothing and bring water and whatever else you need to be comfortable.
