Please note that pre-registration is required for the Sub-5 ride and closed at midnight on Labor Day with a total of 155 riders. However registration will be open for the recreational ride on the morning of the event.

The recreational riders use a separate course to the Sub5 and start out as one large group. Our official starter, Mr. John Vande Velde will be on hand to stage the recreational and sub-5 groups. Recreational riders should arrive no later than 8 AM and be ready to ride at 8:30 AM.

There is a Rec Ride of 25, 50 and 75 with "day of registration", rest stops and SAG support.  The rec ride is not timed, but rolls on the same great farm roads around Hampshire IL.

I thought there was something shorter than 62 miles as well.
