BIKEFEST 2017 - Registration closes Aug 6th

BIKEFEST 2017: Rural Heritage Tour.

http://tarwheels.net/bikefest/

This is our signature event of the year. The routes follow scenic rural vistas along quiet country roads, past historic farmsteads and rustic churches so you can enjoy the pastoral heritage of the Piedmont.

This is a fully-supported ride with rest stops, refreshments, and restrooms. Routes are clearly marked and patrolled by SAG vehicles. Mechanical support (repair) is provided on a cost-of-parts-only basis. Ride options of 35, 62 and 100 miles.

The Tarwheels donate all proceeds, in excess of expenses, to bicycling related activities in our community. In the past 6 years we have donated more than $15,000/yr. Recipients include Triangle Trips for Kids, Lewis Days (bike restoration for children of need), Kidical Mass, the Special Olympics Cycling Team, and the Carrboro Bicycle Coalition.

The Tarwheels take pride in the volunteers who contribute time, energy, and the tour’s hallmark homemade cookies and baked goods. They have made the Rural Heritage Tour one of the most enjoyable bicycling events in North Carolina.

There is no on site registration and registration closes on Aug 6th so sign up early. More information and registration at:
