History Bike Tampa visits Sulphur Springs
Time: 10:00 am til 12:00 pm
Location: Meet at Kahwa Coffee, 808 North Tampa Street TAMPA, FL
Description: We're going to head farther north than usual! For those of you who attended this tour last year, you may remember what a spectacular ride this was!! Working with the Sulphur Springs Museum and Heritage Center, we'll take our riders on a tour of this historic neighborhood, stopping off at local land marks.
Two starting locations will be available for this ride, our usual meet up at Kahwa Coffee in downtown will depart at 10am (SHARP), but if you live closer to the North Tampa area, our tour will start at 10:30 at the Sulphur Springs Museum and Heritage Center, located at the Mann-Wagnon Park, 1101 E River Cove Street. Show up early to check out what the museum and heritage center has to offer.
As always, the tour is provided free of charge, however there's a suggested donation of $5. The Museum will get the majority of the proceeds for this ride.
The ride will last approximately 2 hours and will be traveling in light to moderate riding conditions. Please RSVP if you are planning on attending, and come ready to ride safe (helmet!!).
