100K Route	50K Route

 

As in previous years, the ride will start from Saltbox Village in Cary. Rest stops with food and refreshments will be provided on both routes. Hibernian Restaurant and Pub will again host a post-ride party.

Bring the family! Hibernian will also be open during the ride allowing your non-cycling companions to enjoy treats while they wait for you. We'll have:

• plenty of sodas and watermelon to help everyone keep cool,
• live music and a bouncy fun house for the kids,
• the July 4th Tour de France stage will be shown 'live'
• the first 700 registered riders will also receive free frozen custard from Goodberry's.

A buffet is also available for purchase the day of the ride ($12) at the Hibernian Restaurant and Pub at a slightly higher price than below. That said, you definitely want to come to the party at the Hibernian. Join all the cyclist as we take over the Hibernian with the Tour de France on dozens of TVs! Come root your favorite team or rider during that day's stage with a fine draft beer.

As in previous years, we cover the BikeReg fees and the first t-shirt when you register today!

**PLEASE NOTE: T-shirts are available only to those pre-registered by June 24th. Lunch buffet orders will not be accepted after June 24th. We will not have t-shirts available for purchase the day of or after.**

Pre-registration packets can be picked up before the ride on July 2nd and 3rd at the All Star bike shop, located at the Saltbox Village where The Spin Cycle used to be.

 

We at the Capital Cycling Club believe that the sport of cycling should not have a high barrier to entry. Where does your money go? There are a lots of costs to putting on a ride like this, and we can typically yield about $10 / person per registration to go towards to the MS Society. Please consider making an extra donation below. Thanks! Our hard working volunteers are doing this for the love of the sport and the passion we have for the MS goal. Please join us in the fight, join us for the after ride party, and support our sponsors who support our community.
