Kenosha County hosting ninth annual Fall Wheel Ride Saturday

Kenosha County Executive Samantha Kerkman invites bike riders of all ability levels to participate in the ninth annual Fall Wheel Ride to Petrifying Springs Park this Saturday (Sept. 24).

“It’s a great time of the year to get out and explore our county parks, and the Fall Wheel Ride is the perfect opportunity for families to get out and see some of the beautiful sites of our county,” Kerkman said. “I hope to see you there.”

Riders will start at the City of Kenosha’s Kennedy Park, 4051 Fifth Ave., at 9 a.m. sharp and ride to the Petrifying Springs Biergarten, 5555 7th Street. Kenosha County Sheriffs deputies will bike alongside riders to and from the Biergarten. The event flyer and route can be found at https://bit.ly/3whhUV1.

Food and non-alcoholic refreshments will be provided for riders, courtesy of the Kenosha County Division of Parks in collaboration with the Petrifying Springs Biergarten. To register for this free event, please visit https://2022fallwheelride.eventbrite.com.

Riders are invited to participate in a post-ride yoga session, hosted by Warrior Poet Yoga instructor, Stephen Willis.

The post-ride get-together also coincides with the latest installment of Saturdays in the Park with Sam, a series of informal office hours that Kerkman has been holding in county parks throughout the summer. Kerkman will be at the Biergarten from 10 to 11 a.m. to meet and greet constituents.
