Posting up for Donna:
Hey everyone! I’m feeling pretty pathetic about now…I only have 2 people on my team (and I’m one of them)! Please sign up and ride with me and Chris! You can do a road ride on Saturday OR the new 16 mile mtb loop at Big Flat on Sunday---or BOTH!
Early registration is $15 until April 6 and you are only obligated to raise $150. Our team goal is $750, so once we reach that it’s all good!

Event InformationCome and join cyclist and spinners that will come together for our first two day event in Central PA. New this year we will have a Mountain Bike Challenge being held on day two near Pine Grove Furnace. This is still in the planning stage, but it promises to be an exciting addition to our event.
Whether you are a beginner or avid cyclist, there is a route for you. Road routes from a 25K to a 100K will be supported with rest stops, SAGS and communications. There will also be a 9K family ride for the young ones to participate.
Having no bike is no excuse. Going on in the gymnasium will be our second spin-a-thon. We will have 25 spin bikes and a motivated instructor to lead the classes. If you choose to participate in the spin, you be contacted by a volunteer to reserve a bike for one of the four planned sessions.
When you have completed your ride or spin session, a hot meal, music, and a massage will be provided.
Day two will be the Mountain Bike Challenge being held at Michaux State Forest. The route length is 16 miles. It will have one rest stop and a cutoff time to reach the rest stop. This is not for beginner riders. There is a lot of single track, with obstacles of rocks and logs and climbing. Safety is paramount. A map of the route can be seen by clicking below.

ReplyDeleteThat post didn't use all the bandwidth on the East Coast with its length. Don't they have a website you could just link to?
