Medford Park(ing) Day Sept 21, 2018
by Jeff Roberts on Aug, 15 2018
Park(ing) Day 2018 is a globally recognized event in which Cities across the world turn park(ing) spaces into parks! On Park(ing) Day people attempt to rethink urban form and the use of parking spaces. Parking represents one of the largest public spaces in most cities yet we devote it to cars, not people.
See the full description including an application for you or your group’s park(ing) space.

{"id":674,"title":"Brisk","description":"Brisk rides are for strong riders who want to ride at a brisk *average pace, with occasional sprints, and brisk climbs. The route and starting point will vary - expect some climbing and, in fact, on most days, a lot. Riders should know how to make repairs. Riders are expected to review online and understand the planned route. The Brisk group is NOT a no-drop group, slower riders are discouraged. <br \/>\r\n*Average Speeds \u2013 The speeds listed are average speeds maintained for the entire ride, not the minimum or maximum speeds. To maintain the average ride speed, riders will ride far faster and far slower at times. While not required, a cycle-computer is helpful to judge average speed. In some situations, leaders may feel the conditions justify a slower average minimum speed.","start_location":"Start Location Varies","unprefixed_start_location":"Start Location Varies","pace":"Brisk (>18 mph)","terrain":"Hilly","distance":"50+","ride_leader":"Dennis Cramer","phone_number":"541-773-5804 ","email":"scramer5804@charter.net","time":"Start time Varies","date":{"timestamp":1563692340,"formatted":"Saturday, Jul 20","midnightTimestamp":1563606000,"dayOfWeek":"Saturday"}}
