The ride includes two routes, a seven-mile family ride around scenic Old Greenwich and Greenwich Point, and a 11/2mile beginners' ride. Cyclists can start anytime between 8:30 a.m.
and 10:30 a.m. Both rides start and end at the Old Greenwich Civic Center, 90 Harding Road.

Cost is $10 per adult and $5 per child age 12 and under. Children 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult. The lower entry fee is intended to cover costs, according to organizers, and any proceeds in excess of expenses go to Greenwich Safe Cycling.
