The ride costs only $25 and has 14, 36, and 70 mile route options.
The ride will start promptly at 8:00 AM on Sunday morning, September 9th in front of reVerse on the Country Club Plaza at the corner of Ward Parkway and Jefferson. All three routes start and end at this same location.
Three distance options:
