HOW: It's easy! Take a look at the route options below, click the REGISTER button to get signed up, then we'll see you on ride day!
WHY: Quite frankly, because we hate cancer. Most of us have witnessed first-hand how cancer affects patients and their families. It's our hope to support great local organizations who are doing the important work to fight this disease. And hopefully one day, these organizations won't even be needed. Until then, NO ONE RIDES ALONE.
ROUTES
With three different route options, there's something for everyone. It doesn't matter if you're dusting off your bike for the first time this year, or if you're a weekend enthusiast, or if you're an experienced cyclist looking for a challenge. Or whether you're planning to ride alone, as a family, or with a group of friends. We've designed three routes, all offering scenic views through some of Kansas City's most beautiful neighborhoods, perfectly placed rest stops for refueling, ride marshals riding along to offer encouragement and support, and support vehicles ready to assist if you run into any problems. Our route specialists have carefully designed the routes to be fun, scenic and safe. And so you can focus on enjoying the scenery, we'll make sure you stay on course with extensive signage and road markings.
Now, let's choose the route that's right for you:
The Pint
A 15-mile ride through Kansas City's scenic midtown neighborhoods. This route is perfect for all cycling skill levels.
The six-pack
A 30-mile ride rolling through both sides of the state line. It's perfect for anyone looking to put in some miles and earn that beer!
The Hangover
An intense 40-mile ride that will challenge you with some of Kansas City's steepest gradients. Choose this route if you're feeling adventurous!
Safety Considerations:
-
All cyclists should ride with the necessary items to make their own repairs (consider a portable pump and/or CO2 inflator, spare tube and/or patch kit, tire lever, etc.). If you're unable to make a repair, a support vehicle will be available to transport you back to the Start/Finish.
-
All cyclists must obey the rules of the road. Although all routes will be thoroughly marked, all roads will remain open to vehicles and pedestrians.
-
All cyclists MUST wear a helmet.
-
Stay hydrated. June can be hot in Kansas! Bring a water bottle (or two) and refill along the ride. Water and Gatorade will be provided at Start/Finish and at all rest stops.
More Stuff to Know:
-
T-shirts, Boulevardia tickets and swag will be distributed when riders return to Start/Finish on ride day. There will not be a packet pick-up before the ride.
-
Detailed route maps and turn-by-turn directions will be published and sent to riders before the ride.
