SUMMARY:Full Moon Ride & Walk
DESCRIPTION:The Lawrence Hopewell Trail invites cyclists and walkers to experience the magic of Mercer Meadows Park under September’s full moon during the Full Moon Bike Ride on September 26. The beloved six-mile loop returns as a signature community celebration\, joined by the Full Moon Walk — a one-mile moonlight stroll along the scenic Stony Brook. \nThe nonprofit Lawrence Hopewell Trail and the Mercer County Park Commission present this evening of fun\, family\, friends\, music\, and moonlight that goes far beyond a typical bike ride. \nRegistration takes place at the Rosedale Lake section of Mercer Meadows Park in Pennington. Participants are invited to enjoy the pre and post-ride festivities of DJ entertainment\, food vendors Thai Cha Chak and Nosh Empanadas\, and a campfire with s’mores near Rosedale Lake. The Full Moon Bike Ride is open to adults and children aged 12 and above and the Walk is open to all ages. All children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. \nT-Shirts: Event t-shirts are available for purchase online in advance and will not be available for sale at the event. Be sure to place your order before the event to secure yours! https://lhtrail.org/shop/ \nSafety: Helmets are required by law for riders under 18\, although the Lawrence Hopewell Trail encourages all riders to wear helmets. Front and rear bike lights are required\, as moonlight alone will not adequately illuminate wooded trail sections. Bikes with narrow road tires are not suitable for this route\, as some sections feature stone dust surfaces.
