RIDE vs. RACE  and PRIZES

Please remember this is a ride for a great cause and not a race for a trophy. We plan to ride together in small groups, which is safer and more fun. Since the event is not timed we've decided to award prizes using a raffle approach. At each station stop, riders will receive a raffle ticket. At the end of the ride at our celebration event, we will draw tickets for door prizes donated by our sponsors. If you don't stop at the stations you won't receive a raffle ticket.

 

RIDE CATEGORIES

There are only two categories for this year's event, a Full-Pull and a Fun-Ride. For the longer Full-Pull, riders will start together at Backlick Road Station and riders for the short Fun-Ride will start together at a later time at Manassas Park Station (as the peloton passes through). DEPARTURE AND RETURN:

Full-Pull riders may choose to begin their day at either Manassas (Broad Run Station) or Springfield (Backlick Road Station). 

If you start in Manassas at Broad Run Station, transportation will be provided to the starting line.  You may park at the Broad Run Station. Please know that the transportation will depart at 8:00 a.m. with or without you, so don't be late!

If you choose to begin in Springfield at Backlick Road Station, please park at the station and plan to join the pre-ride briefing at 8:45 a.m.

The ride departs Backlick Road Station promptly at 9:00 a.m.

Transportation will return riders to the starting point. The transportation will depart Broad Run Station promptly at 1:00 p.m. If you need a ride back, don't miss it!

 

RIDE ESCORT and GEAR STORAGE and SUPPORT

For the safety of the group we have arranged for escort vehicles within and at the rear of the peloton. Riders will be able to store their gear (such as a jacket you may shed as we ride) in one of the vehicles and retrieve items at the end. Additionally, if a rider has a mechanical/flat, they can place their bike in a vehicle and ride to the next station stop for support.

 

HOTEL ACCOMODATIONS

If you don't want an early start, consider staying overnight. We have not reserved a block of rooms but there are rooms available in nearby Manassas on the south end of the route and nearby Springfield on the north end of the route. 

 

BREAST CANCER AWARENESS and PINK SOCKS

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This ride is meant to raise awareness, especially for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer. Some of us ride in memory of our friend Maria Foster.  We've included below a link to the JustGiving.com website.  We ask that you wear PINK socks for the ride.
