Details:
In honor of the Tour de France, "The Frankfort Crew" is again moving to the west side of town for July and early August 2018! The West Side is our own version of The Alps, so bring your climbing legs! We will be departing from our Local Bike Shop - Small Batch Cyclery, which is located right across from the entrance to Juniper Hill Park.
We will be riding to fun and exotic locales such as Choateville, Big Eddy, Peytona, Bagdad, Hatton, Grafenburg, Bridgeport, and even Waddy. And after the ride, some of us will drop in to the Casa Fiesta for a cold beverage, maybe some Mexican fare, and socializing!
