Philly drivers are so aggressive it's understandable most don't feel safe enough to bike, sadly! I think @wednightrides.org or any group ride is a great option for getting familiar with some bike routes and main bike lanes!

We were feelin' pretty free last night. It was tons of fun to be part of a pack of 100 cyclists rolling around South Philly. Thanks to @peterskim.org for planning and leading. South Bowl was a great spot to end, too, with the outdoor Yard

Whoa, that was wild. Last night about 100 of us rolled from Fishtown to and through a quite dark Tacony Creek Park. But we made it out the other side for Korean BBQ at MUTA! That was an adventure.

I'm also looking forward to what I think is our first time ending at a Korean place. 🇰🇷 Korean BBQ might be too heavy after a bike ride but I recommend 해물파전 (seafood pancake), 떡볶이 (spicy rice cake), or Korean fried chicken for good shareable dishes. Or 팥빙수 (shaved ice) if you want something sweet.

8/2: Tacony Creek/K-pop Thrilled for a 1st time ride thru Tacony Creek Park. Starting @ Fishtown's Palmer Park, we'll take Tulip, Venango & K Streets to the lush, green creek-surrounding park. Twilight ride in a park w/ dark spots make lights essential - bright enough to see w/, not just to be seen
