Pleasant Lake Ride

REGISTRATION CLOSES WEDNESDAY 7/3 SO WE CAN EMAIL OUT ALL THE DETAILS ON 7/4

The PLEASANT LAKE RIDE from Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales + Kitchen is a FREE self-supported mixed terrain ride. The ride is NOT A RACE and it’s NOT A NO DROP RIDE either. You could call it a glorified training ride if you really need to call it something. You can go as fast or as slow as you'd like... just come ride your bike and have a good time. Really... It's that simple.

RIDER'S GUIDE - The guide will be sent out on Thursday 6/29 to all who have registered. The rider's guide will have the finalized routes and all the info you need to have a good time!

TIME - 100-mile @ 7:11am. 100k @ 9:11am. 50k @ 10:11am.

3 FLAVORS - There will be 3 flavors available to enjoy. 50k, 100k, and 100-miles. Sign up for whatever one you think you'll do and then on the day of the event you can switch if you'd like. 50k is for people looking to get a taste of gravel riding or to enjoy a super chill ride. 100k is for the seasoned rider looking to get in a good workout with friends. The 100-miler is for the hard core gravel enthusiast and it gets a little spicy towards the end.
