Description

Celebrating its 24th year, the Tallahassee Urban Gorilla is an in-town celebration of Tallahassee's extensive network of trails. Urban Gorilla starts at City Hall and heads towards Cascades Park, Myers Park, Indianhead Acres, Kohls Trail, Fern Trail, Tom Brown Park, Cadillac, Alford Greenway, Miccosukee Greenway, Maclay Gardens/Lake Overstreet ($2 park fee - bring cash!), Phipps, Red Bug, Live Oak Plantation, then back towards downtown by way of Waverly Hills, Betton Hills, Midtown, and Old Town. If you complete the classic route you'll cover 50+ miles! Make sure you ride smart and within your ability! The Gorilla will always be a free event, however, in our efforts to continue to support new trail and maintain existing trail we are accepting donations! If you haven't experienced the Urban Gorilla before make sure you're at City Hall by 8:45am and be ready to roll at 9am! The Gorilla will break up into smaller groups riding at their own pace so you will have plenty of groups and speeds to pick from. The beauty of the Urban Gorilla is you can do as much or as little as you want. Think of it as a "choose your own adventure" kind of ride. Because of the historically large turnout, chances are riders will break up into groups of similar speeds and abilities. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A FULLY CHARGED FRONT(WHITE) AND REAR(RED) BLINKING LIGHT AS SOME PORTIONS OF THE ROUTE ARE ON ROADS. PLEASE FOLLOW ALL RULES AND LAWS TO MAKE YOUR EXPERIENCE A SAFE GORILLA! There is no "official" route for this ride. The best way to get a full UG experience is to simply follow the wheels in front of you! Routes will vary from group to group depending on their interests and skill levels - very few attendees complete our suggested route.
