Columbia Tap Trail Bicycle Tour

November 16 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

$10.00 – $15.00

Houston’s Third Ward is a culturally rich, historically African-American neighborhood, that includes Texas Southern University (HBCU), The University of Houston (Tier 1), Emancipation Park, and numerous other cultural gems. One of those is the Columbia Tap Trail, completed in 2009, which sits atop the abandoned Columbia Tap railroad route – originally built by enslaved people to transport cotton and sugar from Plantation to Port.  The trail connects adjacent neighborhoods and serves as a vital link in the growing Houston trail system.

Join us to bike along the Columbia Tap Trail, to learn more about the trail history and identity, safety prioritizations, culture of the neighborhoods adjacent to the trail, and local artists.

Meeting Location and Times
For those individuals renting bikes, we will meet at Eado Bike Company at 912 Saint Charles St., Houston TX 77003 at 10am.
For those bringing their personal bikes, please join us at Eado. We will be ready to roll at exactly 10:15 am – so don’t be late!
