West St. Paul Rider is a free community bike ride to explore the trails of West St. Paul and beyond. It’s happening on August 13 in conjunction with Explore West St. Paul Days. The ride starts at Garlough Park with varying routes to match abilities, including a water stop at Thompson Park.
The West St. Paul Rider is open to everyone, though free registration is required. If you don’t have a bike, grab your favorite wheels or walking shoes and join us.
While the event is free, we encourage donations to the Residents of Color Collective, a local nonprofit.
This year’s event is sponsored by the West St. Paul Reader, Dakota County, and the City of West St. Paul.
This is the second year for the event, which debuted last year with the opening of the Robert Street tunnel along the River-to-River Greenway Trail.
We’re able to support local events like this thanks to the generous support of our members. You can support our efforts by becoming a member through Patreon.
