JP Bikes Spring Roll
Written by Boston Biker on May 19They are doing it again this year!

Spring Roll! Spring Roll! SPRING ROLL!!!
(okay you get the idea). Looks like the rain will break in time for Sunday finally, if not earlier. So get back out on some dry pavement and follow me and the stereo-bike around the neighborhood with a whole bunch of your cycling neighbors. So that’s THIS SUNDAY at 10am at the shiny new South Street Mall at South and Carolina. Ride leaves promptly at 11, but please come early for bike decorating and general merriment. Spread the word with our Facebook event page.
And don’t forget to join the JP convoy this Friday morning for a group ride downtown to the Mayor’s Bike Friday celebration at City Hall. The ride leaves Curtis Hall at 7:00 am, and picks up others near Hyde Sq (Centre and Boylston) at 7:10 am. Free burritos and coffee! Rain or shine, hopefully the latter. Register and more details at www.bikefridays.org.
On Saturday the 21st from 2-5, join our friends at DotBike for their “Future Dorchester Coast Trail Ride”. Take a ride to see the possible routes to connect the Neponset Greenway to the Harborwalk and hear about the results of research done in the area by Tufts graduate students this spring. Bike helmets required. Co-sponsored by Boston Cyclists Union, BNAN, and DotBike. Meet at playground sunshelter, Pope John Paul II Park, Gallivan Blvd.
On Wednesday the 25th from 6-7:30pm, join Discover Roxbury on their “Radical Roxbury” bike tour. This tour follows up State Representative Gloria Fox’s lecture on May 18 on Roxbury’s history of “radical” politics in the mid-20th century. We’ll begin at Roxbury Crossing with the relatively well-known protests against the construction of I-95 along the Southwest Corridor. From there our attention will focus on mid-20th century revolutionary leaders Martin Luther King, Jr and Malcolm X. After passing the former locations of the Black Panthers and SNCC, we’ll end with an overview of the 1967 and 1968 riots in Grove Hall and the police staging grounds in Franklin Park. Tie dyed t-shirt and and Afro pic are optional. Details and tickets available at www.discoverroxbury.org.
