SUNDAY 13TH JUNE:

Zoom Fractal Mandelbrot ride 11am (Irish Time) wherever you are!

We all head out solo but zoom brings us together! After a year of being in boring meetings on zoom, let’s use it a bit differently to have some fun, and discover a new route. Everyone starts on their bike wherever they are in the world, and joins a zoom call on their phone. The host of the call will tell the directions to take, and we will follow…all on different fractal routes. Using a mapping app we can share our route and then use google maps to get home again! If you are up for the zoom craic and aren’t afraid to venture into unknown paths, sign up for this ride by emailing clonbikefest@gmail.com

Lunchtime: Bike Picnic: Go out and have a picnic on bikes!

Pre-dance party wine, chocolate and chats 8pm YouTube Live Join Fionnuala Harkin of Wine Shed West Cork and Allison Roberts of Exploding Tree Chocolate (and Clon Bike Fest!)
