2017 Date Now Set- Saturday July 8th
After a very successful 2016 event, the Lion's Club is eagerly planning the 2017 ride. The date has been set... July 8th. Feedback from the 2016 Ride has been evaluated. Riders loved the enhancements which included a rest stop for the shorter routes, live entertainment and grilled sandwiches available at the finish and the 112 mile challenge. The committee is already looking at ideas to take the Ride up another level.
