*POSTPONED to November 24 due to trail conditions / weather*
Flannel Iowa River Fatbike Adventure Ride
Sunday, Nov. 24, 2024.
Steamboat Rock, Iowa. 10:00 AM
Distances; 20, 30, or 40 miles
Entry Fee: A Toy
Returning for another mixed terrain adventure on all the stuff, with options from 20 - 40 miles through the scenic Iowa River greenbelt area in Hardin County. We’re also helping out a toy drive again this year (see below for more on that).
The routes include - *gravel roads *gravel trail *dirt road *dirt trail *grassy Level C road *mowed grass trail *paved road *paved trail *new this year…concrete steps & a road tunnel
The ride starts/ends outside Happenings bar in downtown Steamboat Rock (opens at 11:00 AM). Optional coffee time ~9:15 before the ride is across the street near the library. Wheels rolling at 10AM. There is a convenience store (The Rock Stop) that will be open that morning if you need anything on the way into town. Since we’ll be rolling through the Valley of Friendliness, I’d encourage meeting new folks and try to keep somewhat together / regroup periodically (however, some may want to go slower or stop more often, while in cool weather others may prefer to keep moving…ride however makes you happy). Happenings runs an annual toy drive the month of November to help area families in need, so your recommended “entry fee” to the ride is to bring a new, unwrapped toy to donate there after your ride (and you also get a free drink from Happenings if you donate).
