Event: Waco Wild West 100 Bicycle Tour
Route Distances (Click distance for route maps):
About the Ride: The bicycle tour starts at 8:00 Saturday, September 22 at Indian Spring Park on University Parks Drive in front of the Waco Convention Center. Riders will be staged in groups according to the distance they plan to ride. All riders are required to wear a helmet. For your safety and the safety of others around you, no headphones allowed. Police will control most busy intersections but riders are required to obey all traffic laws. Keep to the right and ride on road shoulders where possible.
Rest Stops
The Waco Wild West has a tradition of providing great rest stops. They are staged at 3 mile intervals on the 10 mile route and every 10 to 15 miles on the longer routes. The rest stops are stocked with water, sports hydration drinks, fruit, and snacks.
We have a “Best Rest Stop” contest so after the ride, be sure to vote for your favorite one on the Waco Wild West Facebook site at http://www.facebook.com/waco.wildwest?ref=pb
Sag Support
There will be many SAG vehicles patrolling the courses to help with minor repairs and to transport weary riders back to the start area. Please be prepared to fix your own flat tires (bring a spare tube).
Hydration
The biggest challenge for cyclists is maintaining hydration on long rides, particularly if it is hot. Know your limits and ride the distance you are capable of and have trained for. Carry plenty of water, even if you plan to stop at each rest stop.
