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.

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!
