LHT FULL MOON BIKE RIDE

MERCER MEADOWS PARK

The Lawrence Hopewell Trail Corporation and Mercer County Parks Commission proudly hosts the annual Full Moon Bike Ride in Mercer Meadows / Rosedale Lake. Our most recent ride in September 2019 was a fantastic out-of-this-world event! Over 500 people came out to Mercer Meadows to enjoy the festivities.

While the moon was a bit shy, the event was lively with music from Sarah Copley, Ruotao Mao, Mikyung Lee, and Kenny Love. There was lots of fun and marshmallow roasting around the campfire hosted by REI Co-op. Sourland Cycles and Hart’s Cyclery & Fitness came out to support the event and provide assistance to riders. Purple Cow Ice Cream and Buzzetta Festival Foods provided yummy treats.

Many trail fans decorated their bikes and themselves to add a festive look and create a glow when the moon did not. A team of over 40 volunteers helped make the annual event a success. Of course, what would a Full Moon Bike Ride be without the many LHT friends who made the evening truly memorable.
