There Are Many Events In The Hill Country...
Here Are Some of Them
River Region Bicycle Classic October 16, 2010
Experience the rugged beauty of the Texas Hill Country River Region by joining us each October for Bicycle Classic. This event is for the cyclist looking for a serious challenge as well as families wanting an enjoyable ride for everyone.
Headquartered at Parkview Riverside on CR 350, Bicycle Classic kicks off on Friday, with packet pickup, late registration, and a skills clinic focusing on climbing and descending skills needed for hill country rides. Maps of the area will be available for unsupported rides. An evening social with snacks, entertainment, and vendor booths is also part of the fun.
It’s your choice of supported routes: 32-mile Scenic Cruise (out and back), 52-mile Challenge, and the 102-mile Dragon's Back Century. The 52-mile Challenge and the Dragon's Back include the most spectacular hill climb and descent in Texas. All routes include beautiful views, river crossings, friendly, well-prepared rest stops at least every 10 miles, and expert SAG wagons and mechanics.
Enjoy beer, BBQ, music & fun on Saturday night on the banks of the Frio! Bicycle Classic proceeds are donated to local scout troops, EMS, and fire departments that volunteer their time to help ensure your ride is a safe one.
