The ride will be a 5.6 mile loop and riders are asked to bring helmets and front and read lights for their bikes.

But lights aren't the only thing you bike needs.

The event encouraged rides to decorate their bikes in the holiday spirit. Throw some bells on your pedals, tie a bow to your handlebars, warp your seat in wrapping paper, or anything else creative and fun. Riders can also dress up in costumes.

Kids younger than 7th grade must be on parent-powered bikes – that means a tandem, trailer, tag-along, etc.

Doylestown Bike Works is collecting used bike gear, clothing, and accessories to donate to the Cadence Youth program in Philadelphia, so bring your donations, too.

The ride is Sponsored by Doylestown Borough Parks & Recreation and Women Bike Dtown.
