Saturday, February 14, 2015 Bayou City Outdoors Valentine's Farmers Market Bike Ride 8AM – Noon Onion Creek 3106 White Oak Dr, Houston, TX 77007
There is no love greater than food! If you plan on treating yourself or a loved one with a delicious home cooked meal tonight, you might as well opt for the freshest quality around! Did you know many of our local restauranteurs shop at the Farmers Markets each week for handcrafted cheeses, local produce, baked goods and locally sourced organic meats? Our job is to pedal fast enough to beat them to the market but slow enough to enjoy the ride :)). No problem for us! We’ll use the side streets, trails, and residential areas in the heart of Houston to meander our way around.
This is a very social ride (we chat a lot) all levels of riders and all types of sweeties are welcome. We will start the morning off with a leisurely coffee at Onion Creek and then cruise through 2-3 markets to shop for fresh produce, sauces, jams, and bread. This is a 12-15 mile ride that lasts about three hours so bring plenty of water and a backpack to carry your goodies! Plan on sticking around after the ride to enjoy lunch at Onion Creek Cafe. They are a locally owned eatery and one of the first of it’s kind. Good food, good brews and good friends on this Valentine's Day.
No bike? No worries! You can pick up a bike from the B-Cycle kiosk around town: http://houston.bcycle.com/home.aspx. Or go to one of your local bikes shops like: West End Bicycles @ www.westendbikes.com, Bike Barn -@http://bikebarn.com/, Planetary Cycles @ http://planetarycycles.com/, or Houston Cycling Centres @ http://northwestcyclery.com/.
Meet at Onion Creek, 3106 White Oak Dr, Houston, TX 77007. Please DO NOT park in the Onion Creek lot – there is parking on the surrounding streets but look out for ‘no parking’ signs. Meet at 8:00AM – leave at 8:30AM to Noon. Free for members and non-members alike.
