LRP is about 80 miles from Albany.
Ride your bicycle on the Lime Rock track from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Sunday, September 19!
It’s a charity ride called Wings of Hope, to benefit the Connecticut Children’s Medical Center and its “REACH for the STARS Cancer Survivorship Program.”
If you sign up, you are asked to pay a registration fee and also set an individual fundraising goal for your ride. You can ride the track, which is 1.5-miles long, as many times as possible – or simply ride to enjoy the scenery. There will be a separate course for kids in the lower “A Paddock.”
There will be family activities on-site, and refreshments will be served throughout the day.
Entrants are encouraged to pre-register on the Wings of Hope website, but “walk-ins” (ride-ins?) on the morning of the event can be signed up, too!
If you come, PLEASE go to the Lime Rock Park MAIN ENTRANCE at 60 White Hollow Road.
