Join us for a special Mindful Bike Ride on Thursday, August 7, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. sharp. We’ll ride the scenic Hop River State Park Trail from Vernon to Bolton State Park and back, a peaceful round trip just over 2.5 hours, with a relaxing stops along the way. Feel free to bring your e-bike or a standard bicycle, whatever suits your ride.
Please arrive by 9:50 a.m. to get ready. We’ll meet at Hop River Trail Parking Lot in Vernon (51 Church St, Vernon, CT). Look for a silver Honda CR-V with brightly colored Tibetan prayer flags on the bike rack—that’s your organizer(s)!
