Merced Bicycle Coalition sets Dec. 6 holiday night ride
Summary
The Merced Bicycle Coalition announced a short, family-friendly holiday night ride on Dec. 6 that typically starts near Bobart Square at about 5:30–6 p.m.; riders often decorate bikes with lights.
At the Oct. 28 meeting, Dwight, speaking for the Merced Bicycle Coalition, announced the coalition's holiday night ride is scheduled for Dec. 6, with a planned start time around 5:30–6:00 p.m. He said the ride is short (about 20–30 minutes), usually begins near Bobart Square and is family-friendly though small children on training wheels may have difficulty keeping pace.
"The Merced Bicycle Coalition has finally set a date for the 6th," Dwight said, noting organizers will share start-location details on the coalition's website and Facebook page and that participants often decorate bikes with lights. Staff and commissioners clarified the ride will not close streets; it is an informal community ride rather than an event requiring city-managed street closures.
