🎶 It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood ... 🎶 🚲☀️

High 80s? What heat?! 😎 We rolled the Iron Horse Trail from Pleasant Hill BART to Dublin/Pleasanton BART like it was just another Saturday.

We soaked up the shaded trail, stocked rest stops, bike ed; cooled off at a local watering hole; & then tackled a gravel detour. Lead by example... ride it, don’t walk it! 😂

Best part? More Black Bike Joy. ✊🏾 One rider crushed their longest ride ever & first time on the Iron Horse Trail, while we swapped stories about bike camping, freedom & the kindness found on two wheels.
