Time flies when you're riding your bike. Join us this year for our twenty-sixth-anniversary celebration. We strive to improve the ride every year, and we are going all out for this year's ride. The rest stops are competing to be the best, and we will have a podium for the post-ride photos. Our end-of-the-ride party is infamous, and it's getting some fun additions. We are opening the doors for a brewery tour and bringing back the frisbee dog show, We will drop massive one-day discounts throughout the year, so keep an eye on our website and Facebook page.
Registration opens at 0630, and the ride mass starts at 0800. The ride distances are 14, 31, 48, 66 and 103 miles. The routes are designed to allow the riders to choose their distances on the ride. If you feel good, ride farther; if you are tired, head back to the brewery to enjoy the post-ride events sooner. The ride begins and ends at the brewery.
The ride has rest stops every 15 to 20 miles, and a SAG team drives the route to supply aid to cyclists needing help. Lunch will start at 10;30 and the festivities will wind down at 1600. The SAG team will notify the cyclists still on the course as closing time approaches to offer them a ride back to the brewery to enjoy the fun. No worries though. The brewery team will pull box lunches for riders still on the ride so all will get a meal. Our last rest stop is dedicated to the cyclists and always stay until the last cyclists clear their rest stop.
Parking is on the lawn in front of the brewery, but VIP parking in the coveted East lot can be purchased at registration. We will have raffles and silent auctions so a bit of cash could be useful.
