The March Full Moon is known as the Full Worm Moon.
The Full Worm Moon was given its name by the Algonquin tribes from New England to Lake Superior.
At the time of this spring Moon, the ground begins to soften and earthworm casts reappear, inviting the return of robins. In some regions, this is also known as the Sap Moon, as it marks the time when maple sap begins to flow and the annual tapping of maple trees begins. (almanac.com)
The Philly Full Moon rides shall continue on.
If for some reason there is rain, or snow, Saturday the 7th will be the make-up date.
We will meet up at the bottom steps of the Art Museum, and try departing @8:00 PM. There will be an announcement made of which way the route will be going and questions will be answered.
It is best to hang out beforehand and mingle. Decide who to ride with if you have not done this ride before.
If you are driving from somewhere far away, the parking by the Lloyd Hall is fine if you park after 8PM. It is 2 hour parking to 10PM.
This ride is any speed. Slow to speed demon. No one will be left behind, intentionally. Any bike is just fine for the ride.
Helmets and lights are encouraged but not required. Following traffic laws is also recommended, but the route is mostly on lightly used roads/intersections.
The route can be approximately 10 miles, and will be posted hopefully a week before the ride. The end will be at a random bar that likes crowds of bike riders locking up outside.
Remember to Invite your friends, family, neighbors! I would love to see it overload the city streets one of these times.
