he sun is shining in Philadelphia, and we’re ready to get outside to soak in the season. For me, that means getting on a bicycle and spending the day out on the trails or just riding through the city. Luckily, Philly offers plenty of routes that are two-wheel friendly and reveal some of the city’s most stunning sights. Turn to page 10 to find out where to go to have your own cycling adventure. If biking isn’t your thing, you’re in luck. June is also festival season, which means there’s plenty to explore on foot. From cultural celebrations to arts showcases and Philly Pride, there’s a street fest to suit almost every taste. Check out page 12 for all the celebrations on our must-do list, like Fête Day in Elfreth’s Alley (above). And the summertime fun doesn’t stop when the sun goes down. Though Philadelphia is known for its rich history, the city is also mixing up history with a stellar cocktail scene. Drink it all in with a sample of our favorites on page 8. Our calendar is full this month with concerts, Broadway shows and so much more. Turn the page and follow us for what’s sure to be another great summer in the City of Brotherly Love.

THE

PRIDE & JOY

John Cusack made his bigscreen debut in 1983’s “Class,” a preppy take on “The Graduate.” But it wasn’t until 1989’s “Say Anything” that Cusack became a star, and in more recent years, the source for a popular meme highlighting a boom box. After a screening of his star-making film, Cusack chats about the movie and his acting career, while fielding questions from the audience. Academy of Music, 215.893.1999

With the theme “Stonewall at 50,” which marks the 50th anniversary of the start of the LGBTQ+ movement in this country, this year’s PrideDay promises to be the biggest one yet. The fanfare kicks off with a block party on June 7 and culminates with the 31st parade marching down Locust and Market streets from 13th Street, starting on June 9. Check the website for updated schedules/ details. www.phillygaypride.org

PALIZZI SOCIAL CLUB

Where Now

Top Shelf

You might think of Philadelphia as a beer town, and don’t get us wrong, locals hold brew culture on a pedestal. But over the past decade, the city’s cocktail scene has gotten so strong that chances are any restaurant you stumble into will have a reasonably accomplished cocktail program. Still, don’t leave it to chance. Hit these four bars for a guaranteed excellent drinking experience. ADAM ERACE

PALIZZI SOCIAL CLUB

FRIDAY SATURDAY SUNDAY

BLOOMSDAY CAFE

Each of the signature cocktails at the hardest-to-get-into restaurant in the city is named for one of Palizzi’s former presidents. Manager and head bartender Guido Martelli usually runs one special a night, but make sure to end with the “D’Amo,” a concoction of freshly brewed espresso and brown butter-washed amari capped with clotted cream and a sprinkle of sea salt.

Open early morning till late night, this multi-hyphenate is run by a squad of Philly MVPs. Lindsey Evans’ drink collection starts with low-ABV elixirs like the Herbal Tea, a clarified milk punch with green tea sochu. At night, drinks get stronger without losing the menu’s free-spirited vibe. Blended from honeydew-avocado juice, tequila, Aperol and prosecco, Born Feral is the drink of the summer.

TEQUILAS

Paul MacDonald’s cocktails are always balanced as carefully as a house of cards, with bitter, sour, sweet and strong all in alignment. You can always count on learning about a new ingredient like Chareau, the California aloe liqueur joining tequila and strawberry in the Made You Look.

Manager David Suro Jr. lines the moodily lit mahogany bar here with blancos, reposados, añejos and gorgeous mezcals. The staff is skilled at discussing the distilled drink, but there are plenty of cocktails as well, from the smoky Michelada Ahumada to the flawless house margarita rimmed with cactus salt.

The sun is shining, the air is warm, and Philadelphia’s bicycle lanes are calling. Whether you’re an experienced cyclist or you’re just looking to explore America’s first city, these trails reveal historic sites, verdant parks and unforgettable scenery. Amy Gordon

The Schuylkill River Trail presents a tranquil and beautiful backdrop for exploring the city and beyond on two wheels. While the path extends roughly 130 miles, only 60 miles are bike-friendly, including a 26-plus-mile stretch that runs from Philadelphia to Phoenixville in Chester County. Where the road narrows near Locust Street in Center City, the 2,000-foot-long Schuylkill Banks Boardwalk provides easy access to cyclists. Outside of city limits, the trail winds through Valley Forge National Historic Park, a must-see for history buffs who want to explore America’s Revolutionary past, right where it all happened. For a shorter ride that’s just as memorable, take the Kelly Drive Loop, an eight-and-a-half-mile section of the Schuylkill River Trail. This route passes landmarks like the Philadelphia Museum of Art and Boathouse Row, offering the opportunity to stop for selfies and enjoy stunning riverside views. Also part of the Schuylkill River Trail, the Manayunk Towpath (opposite) brings riders through one of Philly’s most charming waterside neighborhoods. Today, the area houses an array of cafes, shops, galleries

and parks, but the neighborhood has a long history of industrialism. The trail pays homage to the zone’s heritage, with signage and relics that help bring the past to life. The Delaware River abuts Philadelphia to the east, and along its shores, the Delaware River Trail offers a cycling oasis against the backdrop of the majestic Benjamin Franklin Bridge. While you’re in the neighborhood, make a pit stop at riverside attractions like Spruce Street Harbor Park, Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest, Penn’s Landing, Race Street Pier, Yards Brewery and Sugarhouse Casino. Philly’s Pennypack Park is another stellar option for touring. Home to more than nine miles of paved roads that make it easy for even novice cyclists to get around, the park also showcases lush greenery and peaceful waterfalls ideal for rest stops. Just about a 20-minute drive north of Philadelphia, Wissahickon Valley Park offers a web of pathways ranging from roughly four to eight miles. Routes like Forbidden Drive, the White Trail and the Yellow Trail are all open to cyclists, but be prepared to share the road with pedestrians and equestrians.

Indego This bike share program has hundreds of two-wheelers at more than 60 stations across the city. Each features a touchscreen kiosk with easy-tofollow steps for renting and returning. Check the website and the app for the latest rates, maps and availability. www. rideindego.com Wheel Fun Rentals This national rental chain offers everything from standard two-wheelers to tandems, kid’s cycles and even surreys. 1 Boathouse Row, 215.232.7778, www. wheelfunrentals.com Fairmount/Brewerytown Bicycles This retailer and service station also has rentals.
