Partial Ride (Track 2) Ride ~37 kilometers (~23.3 miles) on your own and join us on celebration day for the final 23 miles of your ride. You will start 10:30am and enjoy lunch (if you choice) and a group photo with all the "fund-riders". Every pedal counts! Full Ride (Track 3) Ride Join us in person on celebration day and ride all 75 kilometers together.
