A Year of Yay! is our signature monthly ride, designed to highlight local businesses and promote Yay Bikes! membership. Each ride is a casual (~12mph) 15–25 miles, with several stops at local businesses or organizations that express the theme of the month. All members ride free (non-members pay $5/ride) and all riders receive an exclusive, limited edition button designed by Bandito Design Co. Collect all 12 this year! The “Luck ‘o the Irish”–themed March 17 ride leaves from Goodale Park at 11am for the St. Patty’s Day parade and a casual spin around town, ending at Hal & Al’s for food & drink specials. RSVP on Facebook and/or come a wee bit early (starting at 10:30am) for registration.
