Waco Wild West Century Bicycle Tour - Waco, TX

July 30, 2007 By: Administrator Category: Calendar

September 29, 2007
8:00 amto3:00 pm

The Waco Wild West Century Ride starts at 8 a.m. in front at the Suspension Bridge in downtown Waco.

A 10-mile family friendly route goes through beautiful Cameron Park and downtown Waco. There are several rest stops to make it a fun ride for all. The 25-mile route is also fun for families and recreational riders. This route is quite flat and passes by the Lake Waco Dam and the peaceful surrounding countryside. The 50 & 65-mile routes are relatively flat with a few challenging hills thrown in to keep you from getting bored! The 100-mile Presidential Tour takes riders on scenic roads throughout McLennan County. It passes by the Western White House, and through the oldest state park in Texas, Mother Neff Park. Although fairly flat, there are some hills to get your heart pumping! Again this year, the 50, 65 and 100-mile routes feature a rest stop at the Masterfoods USA candy factory, home of Skittles®.
