Description

Party Ride

Distance - Friday:10 mi, Saturday: 35 mi

Click here for a FLYER. http://files.me.com/hammermelon/2nepgd This is the MelonHead's Annual Mississippi Trail Ride. A beautiful and paved trail that follows the river. There are stops about every five miles along the route. Click on link to see pictures from last year's ride: http://gallery.me.com/hammermelon#100081 Last year, those camping out on Friday night did a impromptu ride to Port Byron and visited several of Port Byron's finest establishments. This year it will be included as a prologue to Saturday's ride. So if you can get there on Friday nite, set up your tents and head on up to Port Byron (about 5 miles). Just look for the bikes and most likely we will be there! Bring lights!

Route

Port Byron at NOON, Cordova (maybe), Hampton and Moline. Back to Hampton, then back to camp. Last stop on Saturday will be Shannon's Bar and Grill. They have new owners, but have been informed about us. Campsites are only two miles up the trail from this bar.
