Saturday Group Bike Rides

 ,   Add to calendar
 9217 Baltimore Ave College Park MD 20740  See map

Saturday 10am group bike rides from Proteus bike shop in North College Park.  This ride is an intermediate exercise/social ride -- we usually ride for about 2 hours through the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center and Patuxent wildlife refuge, a total distance of about 22 miles.


The pace is moderate, and riders of all abilities are welcome.  There are usually there are between 5 and 15 riders, and sometimes we'll split into groups of faster and slower pace.  But the ride leader always stays at the back in case anybody has a problem or flat tire, and no one is dropped of left behind.


Often, we'll stop for lunch after the ride, at the New Deal Cafe in Greenbelt, or Fishnet Restaurant in Berwyn Heights.

Considering the sorry state of sex education in schools today and parental reluctance for teachingRead More anything but abstinence (if they teach anything at all), I'd suggest that the sale shouldn't even be questioned. When we decide education means more than just saying "no," when boys and men learn that it's as much their responsibility as women's to avoid unprotected sex and that violence against women is wrong, and when we teach consequences along with abstinence, then perhaps the pill won't be necessary. I don't see that day coming for a long, long time. Now, if the course "Our Whole Lives" taught by Unitarian Universalists became standard education in every school, perhaps we wouldn't need emergency contraception. Education (knowledge) is power.

Betsy, I agree with a lot of your post; many parents seem to feel that if they tell their childrenRead More about sex, it's the same as telling them to go out and do it. I'm willing to bet that more young people get into trouble by ignorance than by knowledge. (and I haven't read the text that you mentioned but yes, education/knowledge IS power).

By all means, give them the pill and let them stop trouble in its tracks. From that moment forward,Read More encourage them to find safer ways to have fun.
