Ride with AARP Boomers and Bikes℠ in August!

AARP Boomers and Bikes℠  ride MCT in August!

Spend a morning with AARP in St. Louis on a guided bike ride on one of the many trails in the region.  Our Boomers and Bikes℠ program explores a different trail each month, April through October. 

Our cycling team will take care of everything – you just need to bring your bike, your helmet and your sense of adventure!

Check in starts at 7:30 am. and  the ride will start at 8:00 am end by 11:30 am. 

Drost Park (Maryville, IL) will serve as our start point for this ride. The park has a seven-acre lake, several pavilions, about three miles of asphalt walking trails, boat ramp, barbecue grills, picnic tables, benches, playgrounds, and restroom facilities.

There will be two ride options. The short ride will be 9-12 miles and the long ride will be 18-24 miles.

On select rides, we will have a mobile bike shop & repair service (Vanimal) for your cycling needs before, during or after the ride. We want to make sure everyone has a safe and fun experience while out on the trail!

There is an option for any one interested to gather for lunch after the ride. Or you’ll be free to continue cycling in the area or carry on with the rest of your day.
