For people with an adventurous spirit and a passion for the outdoors, there’s no better way to experience public art than from the seat of a bicycle. Today’s ride is a campus tour visiting works in the UT Landmarks public art program. Ride size is limited, so please rsvp to eileenstx@yahoo.com. We ride from Mellow Johnny’s Bike Shop but have a second departure at 9:00am from outside the Blanton Museum Cafe on the UT campus near MLK and Congress. (The Cafe is located in the west building.) We’ll be joined by docents to fill us in on the artists and the pieces themselves. The total distance is 6 miles and will travel at a novice-friendly pace. Come by at 8:00am for pre-ride coffee. Riders have the option to stay after the ride for lunch at the Blanton Cafe. Helmets required.
