The Erie Canal Museum has teamed up with cultural sites and breweries across the state to develop a summer long cycling series along the Erie Canal titled “Beers, Bikes, and Barges.” The goal of this series is to showcase the Erie Canal’s diverse history, the Empire State Trail, and the unique breweries that are found throughout the state.
The program comes to the Spencerport area on Thursday, August 24, beginning and ending at the Arrowhead Marina and Golf Course, 655 Gallup Road, Spencerport. Participants will meet at 6 p.m. for a 90-minute cycling tour that will highlight the canal in Adams Basin and Spencerport, and stop at the lift bridge in Adams Basin. Learn about industries in the area and the stories of the people that lived here.
Rohrbach Brewing Co. will be present to serve their brews at the end of the ride. The first drink will be covered as part of a $25 registration fee that will also provide a donation to the Erie Canal Museum and this week’s partnering cultural organization. Helmets are required.
