Street Art Bike Tour
Saturday, November 9, 2013
11:00am until 1:00pm in CST

We’re bike-touring 4 of the best murals in town, with a docent intro to each! It’s the Dallas Contemporary’s Alive for 35 anniversary weekend! They sponsored the creation of each of these in some way. And we are so thankful they did.
We’ll start and end at the Dallas Contemporary, so you can bring you bike down if you won’t be biking over from home. Either way we’ll see works by Shepard Fairey, JMR, Sour Grapes, and Faile. Then the Tutta’s Pizza food truck will meet us at the end.

One such open bit of really tight singletrack brings you by the fence of one of the ball fields, and then leads you back into the trees. There is a wood beam to cross over in case the ground is muddy there, which is a nice touch in case the trails are…
