That’s right, it’s bike month in the Sacramento region, and Folsom, winner of the Silver Award as one of America’s bike-friendly cities, is leading the way with some great events.
Kicking it off will be the Great Scott Bike and Walk. You can enjoy over 30 miles of beautiful country roads, closed to vehicle traffic for the exclusive use by cyclists and pedestrians.
This free event is made possible by the City of Folsom, Sacramento County, El Dorado County, the City of Rancho Cordova, the 50 Corridor Chambers of Commerce, and a variety of community sponsors.
Fast riders can access the course from 8-9 a.m. and the speed limit slows for family-friendly rides from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Find route and registration details at www.BikeGreatScott.com.
Also on Sunday, is the Folsom Prison Race Behind Bars.
This is your opportunity to ride on the State Prison property. The area is off limits at all other times. The course includes single track, flume trail, fire road and bridge crossings among native oak woodlands.
