The Bicycles East rides are postponed for this weekend, in its place is the Inaugural Poker Ride. Following the same route as last years Veteran’s Day Ride, starting and finishing in Matthews, NC. The metric century travels through much of scenic Union County. Don’t forget to stop at all the rest stops to pick up a playing card!

Nicole and I will be there on the Cannondale Tandem. It would be nice if another tandem or two would show up also. We would like to draft on occasion instead of having to pull everybody around the route.

Registration

Remember, all the proceeds from the event will go to the Matthews Help Center and the Mecklenburg Aquatic Center.

Only 18 spaces left as of Thursday midnight.

When I first came back to riding BIKE! Charlotte was the first organized event that Nicole and I did together. That was two years ago. This year the events surrounding BIKE! Charlotte run from Thursday May 1st through Sunday May 11th.

Bikes can ride for free on CATS Buses and LYNX Light Rail.
