Kehinde Wiley's "Judith and the Holofernes" is the ultimate eye candy at this museum and the outdoor sculpture garden walk is an absolute must!

You can download the LIME or SPIN apps via the above website to gain access to the scooters. It is a requirement to ring the bell and yell "SCOOTER GANG" to fellow scooterers while scooting. One of our favorite routes is to go on the backstreets off of Forest Park Road and Hillsborough Street
Great spot for lunch or drinks with one of the best views of the Raleigh skyline.
Dope vintage and modern designer consignment...full of unique gems for all! Yay to gender equality.
The sunflowers will be in full bloom at Dorthea Dix Park. We will be picnicking on the other side of the park at the Big Field on Sunday...so maybe plan to swing by then for a great photo op!
The blueberry bee pollen and CBJ smoothies are our go tos.
For all our fellow sneakerheads.
One of our favorite hikes (paved with an optional nature trail section) around Lake Johnson. Take the East Loop and park in one of the lots off Avent Ferry. Must do for all you birders out there - we see blue herons every time.
Raleigh staple bbq...recommended by Ryan because Becca hates bbq.
Becca sourced her entire wedding day fit from here and does some instagram modeling for them from time to time. Women only - sorry gents!
Hike some really lovely nature trails within a 15 minute drive from downtown Raleigh.

The biscuit though...try it with honey or get the breakfast sammie and still add that honey!
Easily the coolest gift shop in all of Raleigh.
A great stop on a scooter tour through Raleigh. Highly recommended for photo ops and lunchtime picnics.

The male counterpart to Edge of Urge...a unique giftshop with more masculine energy and a solid craft beer & wine selection.
Great spot for cocktails, mocktails, dancing and views.
Solid bagels...even James Beard thinks so.
Easy spot to grab food at and then cap off the meal with some axe throwing - as your god given millennial right.
