Sherman Kiwanis will host our 4th Annual Red River Bike Rally at Apple Stadium, Austin College on August 15, 2009.
Registration opens at 6:00am and the staggered start is at 8:00am. All preregistered riders (deadline August 1) will be guaranteed a Rally t-shirt and packet pick-up will be August 12-14 at the Nautilus Bicycle Center in Sherman, TX.
There are four routes planned east of Sherman. The distances available are 27, 44, 66, and 100 miles (all are approximate distances). They are all on county roads with little traffic in the beautiful north Texas country. Yes, we have some hills! For the expert riders, the elevation change has proven to be a great workout. We will evaluate the route’s road surface about two to three weeks prior to the ride. Changes are possible for rider safety and staying off the chip seal as much as possible. Port-O-Potties and fully stocked rest stops will be available every 10 to 18 miles. We will have mechanics and SAG support available on all routes. Safety will always be our top priority.
At the morning registration, all participants will be entered in the drawing for a Cannondale bike, courtesy of Nautilus Fitness and Cycling, Sherman. The participant must have a bib number to be entered in the drawing. We will have a concession stand open at the stadium all morning and lunch after the ride.
Come join the fun in beautiful Sherman, Texas!!
