Do you like bier? How ’bout gartens? Yeah…we thought so. Come on out this Friday for the best First Friday Ride ever…to the biergarten!  WalkBikeJersey and the Brick City Bike Collective are proud to lead you out of the city, into the suburbs, and straight on into a little piece of heaven.


Back by popular demand, the first edition of the Biergarten Bike Series will repeat last year’s route to the Deutsche Club of Clark at 7pm on Friday, June 3rd. Meet on the steps of Newark’s City Hall. The ride is a nice and leisurely 15 miles using mostly quite residential streets – check out the map.  We will also be checking out a portion of the East Coast Greenway as it runs south out of Newark and into Union County.


Besides having the greatest bier culture in the world, Germany is also host to one of the world’s finest bicycle cultures. Our ride guide Andy is a Deutsche Club member and has some great insight into the Euro bike scene – making our ride even more authentic!


As for the biergarten itself, there will be live music at the event along with German foods and plenty of bier (note – vegetarians will have some limited options like delicious noodles and amazing cakes). Last call is at 10pm but festivities typically go longer. At the end of the evening we will ride 3.3 miles to the Rahway Train Station to take the train back to Newark (or wherever you may call home). People also have the option of taking the train from Westfield on the Raritan Valley Line if headed to more western parts. Either way, we’ll be riding at night, so bring your blinky lights!!!


This is a great one, was super fun last year, and definitely worth your while. Email us at brickcitybikecollective@gmail(dot)com for more info, or call (973)937-8443
