Strut Your Stuff Celebratory Bike Ride

Join us for a community ride celebrating two new protected bikeways on 400 South and 300 West. Connecting the east and west sides of the city, the 400 South Viaduct Trail is one of the only two train-free crossings in the city. It features Strut: The Longest Public Artwork in Utah by artists Laura Haddad and Tom Druggan. The 300 West Protected Lane helps connect this path through the heart of the city.

Wednesday, May 27th, 5:30, Neighborhood House

Afterwards stick around for the Poplar Grove Community Council meeting and you can meet the planners and artists behind the project. There will also be a taco truck with free tacos for participants!
