Do not miss this panoramic bike tour that explores the gems of the Gateway City and some of its best neighborhoods prior to the start of the Grove Criterium. The ride starts from the grassy corner of Urban Chestnut’s Grove Bierhall at the intersection of Newstead and Oakland. From there take off on routes of three different lengths depending on how much of the city you want to explore. All riders will have the opportunity to do some laps on St. Louis’ famous velodrome “Mr. Bumpy Face”. Some of the tour highlights include: Forest Park, Cathedral Basilica, Bellefontaine Cemetery, Gateway Arch and more! There is also a special “Ride the Vision” where you can try out our study routes for our protected bike lanes. Upon your return you’ll have a front row seat in Trailnet’s VIP tent on the Grove Criterium course where you’ll experience thrilling bike racing up close and personal.
