Description
Join us for a pleasant three to five mile hike in the late morning of the year's longest day. There will be plenty of shade to protect us from the high sun. Food is available for purchase at the TrailHead, or you can bring your own for a little lunch afterwards. The Birchleggings Club will provide soft drinks and snacks. There is no fee for the event and registration on this sight is optional. All are welcome so bring any family or friends that you wish. There is no need to be a Birchlegger to be involved in the hike. Let's gather outside of the Theodore Wirth TrailHead near the fire pit around 9:45 A:M. We will try to start the hike around 10:00 A:M. This is the kick-off of a Summer's worth of activities sponsored by The Birchleggings Club. For more information, please refer to our web site at Birchleggings.com. I hope to see you on Thursday, June 20th. I'll be the guy wearing the Purple bib. Questions?

Birchleggings Club Dakota Trail Bicycle Ride
Lester Praire, MN US 5535
Description
Come join your fellow Birchleggers for a bicycle ride on one of the nicest bicycle rail trails in Minnesota on Thursday, August 15, 2024. This well-kept paved trail goes for 28.5 miles from Wayzata to Lester Prairie, Minnesota, past Lake Minnetonka and Lake Waconia. The trail is in Hennepin and Carver counties and goes through the cities of Spring Park, Mound, St. Bonifacius, Mayer, and New Germany.
Riders can do the full round trip of 57 miles by parking in Wayzata, or shorter distances of 38 miles by parking in Mound, 29 miles by parking in St. Bonifacius, and even 13 miles by parking in Mayer. See links to parking lots below:
The plan would be that the riders doing the shorter distances would join the longer group riders at each location and then ride into Lester Prairie together for lunch at the Central Café, also known as “Mary Kate’s Bitchin Kitchen” for home cooked food! The Central Café only accepts cash, so please bring money.
