Itinerary:
LIGHT YOURSELF UP!

Let's say hello to Autumn who is just around the corner by having some fun in the dark.
We'll start at Glenora Park (since there is ample parking on the street and in a nice neighborhood) and ride down Groat Road and along the River Valley.
The kicker is... We'll all wear as much lighting as we can! Glow in the dark, LED lights, glowsticks, flashlights, you name it. If it emits light we want it. Wrap those Rave-type glow necklaces all over EVERYTHING!!! Your bike, your helmet, yourself or whatever it can adhere to. Let's get as bright as we possibly can.

Meet at Glenora Park for 9:45 PM for a 10:00 PM sharp departure. We'll tour around some residential streets for a bit, then head down Groat Road and follow the River Valley. We'll stick together as a group, and keep our speed low so that whomever sees us can appreciate the effort we put into lighting up the night. Once we get to where we choose to turn around, we'll follow along the River Valley again to our destination, like an out-and-back.
Please be prepared for cooler weather as we all know what Alberta can do in the evenings.
Afterwards if we're up for it, we can possibly keep the lights going and meet up somewhere for drinks. This event will surely garner some attention and questions.
Looking forward to seeing you there!

Notes:
I would recommend hitting up a dollar store and picking up the cheap LED lights and glow sticks (necklaces, bracelets) they have there.
