Prerequisites
Bring your bike with bike lights. Able to bike 17mile length.

What: 17ish mile bike ride to the Arnold Arboretum. https://arboretum.harvard.edu/about/ Will go along the southwest corridor which runs along the orange line, which is a paved bike path. Will bike along Mass ave to get to the start of it.

When: This Thursday, 9/21! Departing from MIT at 77Mass Ave. Cambridge at 4:00 PM sharp! Returning to campus around 8pm ish

Who: You! And importantly, your bike! Or maybe your friends bike, but definitely not a BlueBike, although bikes that are blue are acceptable. BlueBikes are rather unwieldy and not suitable for a multi hour bike ride.

Cost per person: This trip has no cost . Only you need to be an active MITOC member. If you need help, MITOC offers financial aid for annual dues.

How: Sign in by Wednesday at 2pm!

There is also a MANDATORY (but on zoom) pre trip meeting at 7pm on Wednesday. Link to be sent later.

This trip is part of MITOC's back-to-school initiative, everyone is welcome to sign up but priority will be given to MIT undergrad/grad students.

Feel free to e-mail the leaders in case you have any questions!
