Where:
Jacobs Island Footbridge
Jacobs Island Footbridge Missoula, Montana
Description:
Meet us at the Jacobs Island Footbridge for a leisurely 7-mile ride using some of the bike trails and quiet side streets to view the fall beauty around town. We'll start at the University and travel through campus, stopping or riding by a few of the outside art installations. Then we'll head out toward Playfair Park and the Fairgrounds to explore some of the walking/biking trails through the area. These also make for good shortcut routes to the YMCA and Russell Street. We'll finish with a journey through the slant streets to view the changing colors of the hardwood trees and then back through campus. For those interested, we'll head over to Finn for some warm drinks and a bite to eat. Ride is E-bike friendly!
