The Lawrence Hopewell Trail Full Moon Bike Ride will be held Saturday, September 9 starting at 9:30 p.m. Registration is open for the annual event, which starts and ends at the parking lot at Rosedale Lake in Mercer Meadows, Hopewell.

“This ride takes cyclists through Mercer Meadows via the Lawrence Hopewell Trail, which serves as the backbone of an extensive trail system in the park,” said Jay Watson, curator for the ride. “From the starting gate at Rosedale Lake, riders will head to the Maidenhead Trail, on to the Twin Pines Trail, then back to Rosedale Park, in a ride that takes most riders about 45 minutes to complete.”

Helmets are required and cyclists are encouraged to use bicycle headlights and creatively decorate their bikes with glow sticks for the late-night ride. Ice cream vendors will be on hand at the ride start and end of the trail loop.

The cost is $10. Riders must be 12-years-old and up.

Online pre-registration is strongly encouraged at www.lhtrail.org\fullmoonride. Riders are also encouraged to show up early to allow time to sign up. Registration will open at 9 p.m.
