April 26, 2008 Saturday
100 mile Ride at the beach
3nd Annual Trikke Century Ride

There will be a  loop at the beach. This will take all day, so plenty of time for people to join in on parts of the ride to give support. Do as much as they want and also make trikking more visible with more trikkers participating. There will be stops about every 10 miles so the riders will not have to carry so much.

Places to Park to Join the ride

Jack Russell Park, Plaza and Seminole in Atlantic Beach
Plenty of parking, can trikke down to Beach Ave.

100 mile Ride at the beach
Saturday, April 28, 2007

There will be a  loop at the beach. This will take all day, so plenty of time for people to join in on parts of the ride to give support. Do as much as they want and also make trikking more visible with more trikkers participating. There will be stops about every 10 miles so the riders will not have to carry so much. The next few weeks I will be working on finding places at the beach that will be easy for people to join in the ride. We will be able to keep in contact to make it easy to join the ride at different points around the beach

Check out the route -- subject to change
