The Omaha Polio Ride is scheduled for May 23rd. Suburban Rotary has been asked to manage one rest stop for the ride. There are four rest stops and we need 4-5 people per stop. The event begins at 7am and the riders will be done by 11:45am. Sign up to volunteer here.
Who can Ride: Open to Everyone, not just Rotarians…and it’s open to families and children as a community event with different length rides and bike safety training.
Distances: 10, 25, and 44 miles. The 10 and 25 mile rides are specifically designed to be family friendly.
Where: Will start at the Marcus Twin Creeks Cinema Parking lot. All rides will be on the trail system. Only the 44 mile ride will have any street crossings (North of Democracy Park towards Lake Cunningham).
Cost: $40 for all riders. Registration includes a t-shirt and donation to help the eradication of Polio worldwide. Registrations will open March 22nd.
What other activities will happen along with the ride: We’ll have food trucks, bike clinics, and participants will be entered in a drawing for a $500 gift certificate to a local bike shop.
