Parents and their kids are invited to recreate -- and finish -- Paul Revere’s famous ride from Lexington to Concord along the historic Battle Road by bicycle. Come experience the Minute Man National Historical Park and enjoy a gentle bike ride with your kids along the scenic and rural dirt path that meanders through Lexington, Lincoln and Concord.

The ride will be appropriate for any child who can ride on two-wheels without assistance for at least an hour or so. The younger riders will ride for 3 miles with frequent stops at various historic sites, including the Hartwell Tavern where they will encounter National Park interpreters in 18th c. costume.

The older kids will stop at the Tavern for a tour and continue on to the end of the Battle Road at the Meriam’s Corner, riding a total of 8 miles. Complimentary juice ad snacks will be provided to the kids.

This ride is organized by the New England Mountain Bike Association (http://www.nemba.org) and co-sponsored by the Friends of Minute Man National Park http://friendsofminuteman.org)
