Come celebrate Greater Homewood and cycling in Baltimore and pay tribute to the late Jack Yates.
Meet at the University of Baltimore's Gordon Plaza (corner of Maryland and Mount Royal) for some remarks from important cyclists! Meet some of Jack Yates' family! Get an awesome spoke card!
There will be two tour routes. The first is a 15 mile Tour de Greater Homewood, featuring a leisurely ride through tree-lined avenues, main streets, the Jones Falls Trail and more. The second route will be a shorter, family-friendly ride around Central Baltimore, an area of revitalization and arts activity the whole City can be proud of.
There is a suggested donation of $10. Funds will go to the juvenile justice programs that Jack Yates was passionate about.
Mark your calendars for Sunday, November 8th, at 1pm for the Tour du/de Greater Homewood, being held this year as a memorial to Mr. Jack Yates, who was their board member and friend. Mr. Yates’ family will be joining us.
