Tumacacori GABA ride this weekend

Ok Folks, the great people of GABA have invited us to participate in one of there awesome events again. It is called the Tumacacori Century ride. We will not be riding the whole distance, however I want to ride 80 miles as a team. This will be our longest ride yet as a team and an important stepping stone for doing the whole El Tour distance of 109 miles. The ride starts in Sahuarita and travels south to the mission at Tumacacori and then returns to the school in Sahuarita. The great thing about riding with GABA is that they do an amazing job supporting the ride. That means that every 20 miles there is a table full of food, water, and drinks for riders to stop and enjoy. This will make our day easier and a little more enjoyable. The ride starts at 7:30am so will have to leave my house at 6:30 to make it there is time. I presume the ride will take us awhile so don't plan on having your kids back for afternoon chores.

So
When: this Sunday October 26th

Where: Start is in Sahuarita, AZ (Exit 75 off of I-19)

What: 80 mile bike ride--- longest ever as new team

Who: All of the Sunday riders, also please print and sign the registration form for the ride from the GABA web site and bring it with you on Sunday morning or you may give it to me on Friday.
