Sunday October 25 - Ranch House Grill


Just received from Eugene, who will be substituting as ride leader (please don't abuse him like every substitute teacher I ever had):

We will ride the canal thru Biltmore, Stanford/Lafayette out to 68th St. We’ll go down to Osborn & over the Crosscut Canal, wiggle thru some back streets to 56th & Thomas, where we’ll stop at the Ranch House Grille for coffee/comestibles. You can look up the menu here.

Sunday Oct 18 - Sunnyslope/AJ's on Central

 

I do have Sunday off now, as last weekend we were 100% successful with our testing. So I've mapped out a route through Sunnyslope, then down to the Grand Canal path, then north on Central to the AJ's at Central and Camelback for a coffee and nosh outside. 

See you Sunday!

Phoenix Parks Begin Re-opening

Following a vote during Wednesday’s Phoenix City Council meeting, all amenities in city parks will begin reopening effective Thursday, October 8 at 5:30 a.m. Reopening of some amenities will require additional time for Parks and Recreation Department staff to make available. Use of select park amenities has been restricted following a series of City Council orders dating to March and April. 

Phoenix’s public parks, trails and golf courses have remained open throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, but outdoor recreational amenities that present high-touch surfaces or an area that made physical distancing difficult have been temporarily closed as city staff and City Council worked together to monitor positive case metrics.  

Community members using the city’s outdoor recreational amenities should continue to follow these guidelines related to responsible physical distancing. 

  • Do not use public recreational amenities if you are exhibiting symptoms of illness 
  • Wear a mask or face covering 
  • Bring your own wipes and hand sanitizer 
  • Keep a safe distance of six feet or more from others 

Detailed information about the city's outdoor recreational options and free virtual recreation programs is available at Phoenix.gov/Parks.
