Join us for a late October evening ride on the newly re-constructed Moonville Rail Trail. Seven bridges have been rebuilt, the surface has been improved, and there are now miles of new rail trail waiting to be explored. Come join us for an evening ride that will return in the dark (lights and helmets required), as we explore the Moonville Rail Trail all the way from Mineral to the village of Zaleski, about an 18 mile round trip ride. We will be riding in both daylight and darkness through two historic tunnels, the famous haunted Moonville Tunnel, and the almost equally creepy King's Hollow Tunnel.

WHEN: 5:30 PM on Saturday October 23, 2021

WHERE: Mineral, OH (link to Google Map: https://goo.gl/maps/2BfTWk1xovmavyNU9).

WHAT: An evening/night social ride from Mineral to Zaleski and back through 2 tunnels on the Moonville Rail Trail. Wear a helmet, bring a light for your bike.

Depending on time and interest, we may stop at the Moonville cemetery and the Indian Mound in Zaleski. This is a social ride, so no hammerfest here.
