Please join us
for a series of fun bike rides on the Raccoon River Valley Trail. Riders will
become art in motion by lighting their bikes with glow sticks, multi-colored
bike lights and more! We depart after sundown from the Rendezvous Lounge in
Adel or the Longest Yard in Dallas Center and ride to Mickey’s Irish Pub in
Waukee.
Riders are
encouraged to enjoy a tasty dinner and drinks at Rendezvous Lounge or the
Longest Yard before joining their colorful compatriots on the ride back to
Waukee. At Mickey’s Irish Pub, we’ll announce contest winners and have the
opportunity to enjoy drinks with friends— maybe even brave the karaoke stage.
Rides are Friday
nights approx. 9:15PM-10:15PM
May 9—Rendezvous Lounge, Adel - Mickey’s Irish Pub, Waukee
June 6—Longest Yard, Dallas Center - Mickey’s Irish Pub, Waukee
July 11— Rendezvous Lounge, Adel - Mickey’s Irish Pub, Waukee
August 8— Longest Yard, Dallas Center - Mickey’s Irish Pub, Waukee

The ride honors the memory of local bike enthusiast, Jack
Jordison and supports the Waukee Railroad Pergola, an
exciting new public art installation at the Waukee Trailhead of the Raccoon
River Valley Trail.
The project will bring area history to life through its
railroad inspired design and will provide a gathering place for community
members. The pergola will provide some welcome shade for bikers as
they enjoy the unique Raccoon River Valley Trail. For information on this
exciting community project, please visit WaukeeTrailheadArt.org.
