Minneapolis Sled Library
I have previously made bike riding plans but if anyone is going to this and needs a sled I have a couple I can lend
🚨 Sled Fest is our area's premiere sledding event for adults who haven't sledded in a long time, and this year it's happening at Powderhorn Park on New Year's Day!

We supported members who:
-had never ridden a bike before
-hadn’t ridden a bike in decades
-were nervous about cargo bikes
Our members used our bikes to transport adults (some w/ mobility needs), children, dogs, groceries, garage sale finds.
They commuted, had joyrides & rode for exercise.
