Spokane Summer Parkways Adding 'Kidical Mass' Events

It may only be February, but the folks behind Spokane Summer Parkways are already thinking about summer. They announced recently that the Parkways events will be changing a little this year. There will be one 'traditional' Summer Parkway event the evening of Wednesday, June 19 in the Comstock/Manito neighborhood (info here), but then things change a little. Instead of doing additional Parkways events, the group will host "Kidical Mass" rides on three separate dates for kids, their families and 'big kids' who would like to participate.

Kidical Mass are family friendly bike rides through the community. The rides start early in the season, the first one being in April! The dates and locations for 2013 are: April 27 in the West Central neighborhood, May 18 at Chief Garry and September 12 in the South Perry District. More info on Kidical Mass can be found here.
