On Sunday, June 5, 2022, MassBike and coalition partners will host a community bike ride around Boston, Cambridge, Watertown, and Waltham to feature Katherine “Kittie” Knox, a bi-racial woman cyclist and barrier-breaker in the 1890s.

Riders will learn about Kittie as a bicycling pioneer and we’ll ride and reflect on issues we’re facing today in terms of racial and gender representation in bicycling and advocacy. A historical site summary will be provided for this ride by the NECCD (New England Cycling Coalition for Diversity).

There will be 3 Route Options along the Kittie Knox Path:

16 miles starting at Copley Square - 9:30am meet, 10am waves start departing from Copley Square
23 miles starting at Franklin Park - 9am meet, 9:30am waves start departing from Franklin Park at White Stadium
