About this event

a Show, Rally, & Roll tour - 15-mile loop - 80% bikeway 20% roadway - tasty spots towards the end.


You will need a smart-phone (fully charged battery). It is recommended to have a handle-bar mount for your smart-phone and a battery backup.


The plan = Show up, Rally with whoever else shows up, and Roll following the RWGPS smart-guided instructions. This is a smart-guided tour route that can actually be ridden any day or time, solo or with others. It is only posted with a repeating set time and date to encourage you to get out and ride when it is convenient for you.


Take pictures/videos and share. Have fun! Give a nice review of your adventure or call in to the CycleNuts Talkline to record a short report to share on CycleNuts Talk - call 9804494490.


This is a repeating event on the calendar*, but the date and time does not necessarily need to be what is posted. If you are interested in riding by yourself, or with your private group of friends, then simply do it.*


The mission of these free group tours is to create a catalog of tour routes available for CycleNuts to ride as a group, or solo, in an area spanning several states. The goal is to get people out cycling either in groups or solo. The vision is a cycling community with resources available for bike tours, bike talk, and a format for lives experienced at the speed of bike.
