Ride Before the Community Service
Sunday, June 15, 2008
Here’s an opportunity for a Sunday bike outing prior to the GABBF gathering at Centre College. We’ll enjoy our most popular and scenic route, and then roll into town together to worship with the community. Because this is a promoted event offered to fans of The Great American Brass Band Festival, there may be some out-of-town guests joining us. Let’s make this a memorable ride, sharing with visitors the beauty of our county and the hospitality of local bicyclists.
• 7:30 am — Bicyclists gather at the parking lot next to City Hall, Main Street
• 9 to 9:15 am — Bicyclists arrive back downtown at Centre College
• 9:30 am — Community worship service begins at main stage, Centre campus
Course: Over the viaduct and out to the beautiful countryside of Boyle County. A rolling course with several medium hills. About 14-15 miles. Experienced leaders will help divide the group into desired levels of pace.
