GR Bike Prom
Grand Rapids Bike Prom is a first-of-its-kind for GR. This 21+ will begin with a slow roll bike ride starting at John Ball Zoo and ending at Arvon Brewing. Folks are encouraged to dress up for the event, bring a date, and get ready to dance the night away. The bike ride will be a no-drop event through the streets of GR. Upon arriving at Arvon, the bike valet will park your bike, you can take a formal prom photo, and grab an adult beverage.
