Fourth Annual Country Style Fifty Mile
- Meet at Angry Catfish at 10:00
- Roll promptly at 10:30

A 50 mile ramble through the beautiful Minnesota River Bottoms area. Not a race, it's a ride / tour. Come cycle the fabulous River Bottoms with friends old and new. Gravel, pavement, bike path, two track and single track.

Any off road bike will work great, and none are a bad choice, gravel bike, mountain bike, or fat bike will all be good for this course. It's a bit sandier than normal this year, so you might want to run a good size tire, I'd say 42c and up.

Expect to be out there about five hours and there is a gas station at mile 30 and several bars / restaurants at mile 40 in Mendota. Bring snacks!

The ride is free to all, but if you have the means a donation for the organization is appreciated. Venmo is: Jeffrey-Frane

Route File Downoad
Please note that due to excessive amounts of sand the route has been shortened to 41 miles. While a motivated rider on a large tire can do the ride on a gravel bike, I'm recommending mountain bikes and fat bikes for maximum fun.
