50 & 65-mile routes are relatively flat with a few challenging hills thrown in to keep you from getting bored!
100-mile route takes riders through picturesque countryside on rural roads in McLennan and Bosque Counties. The route goes through historic Mother Neff State Park, the oldest state park in Texas. The route takes riders past former President George W. Bush’s Crawford ranch. Although relatively flat, there are some challenging hills to keep your heart pumping!
