Yes, $300.00 by July 31. Ours is a shared goal of $60,000.00 for 2025. We are all in this together.

Can I ride if I am under 18 years?
Yes, but only if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

How fast will the ride be?
It is not a race, but it requires prior training and fitness. Expect 18-25 kph with rest stops as needed. If your pace is slower or you need extra rest/assistance, a support vehicle will come to your aid. We can offer training tips. Just ask.

What kind of bike is best for this ride?
A bike with gravel tires or road bike is ideal. The route is paved road surface. 

What happens in case of bicycle breakdown?
We will be as resourceful as possible, you are riding with people who will want to assist, but if the breakdown is catastrophic, a support vehicle will come to your aid.

It is recommended that you carry a reasonable number of spare parts as there will be limited space in our service vehicle. Get your bike tuned-up before the ride.  A water bottle on your bike is a must. We are happy to suggest a list of tools and spares. Just ask.
