2nd Annual Tour de Nac, Don’t Miss It

Texbiker.net Posted on by

I have not ridden this ride yet but it looks interesting. The question is will the weather cooperate.

The annual bike ride will include both a 7.8-mile and 53.3-mile route beginning and ending in historic downtown Nacogdoches, the oldest town in Texas. The view from the riders’ bicycle seats will include historic landmarks, scenic residential areas and the beautiful rolling hills and towering pines of the East Texas countryside.
“The Tour de Nac will be a fantastic, family-oriented event offering something for everyone from the serious cyclist to the casual rider,” said Ashleigh Endicott, meeting and event coordinator for the Nacogdoches Convention & Visitors Bureau.
