Unity Ride (Bryan's Ride) - Official Saturday Club Ride

• When: Saturday, October 15, 2016 9:00 AM
• Location: Gladeville Community Center

Join the Veloteers, the Fogbees, Harpeth Bike Club, Murfreesboro Bike Club, Highland Rim Bicycle Club and Town Hill for a Unity Ride in remembrance of Bryan Kortness who dedicated himself to bringing together folks through his love of cycling.

Parking will be at Gladeville Community Center https://goo.gl/maps/gjceGUUec8r and the Gladeville Baptist Church back parking lot across the street.

Wheels roll at 9AM. Our route is 44 miles with a rest stop at in Norene at mile 21. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/15318537


After the ride, join us under the pavilion for pot luck, or visit one of the merchants in Gladeville for lunch before heading home. Merchants include Gladeville Market, Ziggy's Pizza and Subway.

The route was chosen to keep folks on scenic, low traffic roads. It's pretty rural for the most part, so there will be the occasional farm dog or two, narrow roads, and livestock grates to watch out for. The folks in this area are pretty respectful of cyclists and we hope to leave a good impression with this event, so please remember to be safe, welcoming, and follow the rules of the road.

Bryan had Type 1 (Juvenile Onsite) Diabetes, and his family would like us to continue the fight against Type 1 - If you would like to make a donation to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation in memory of Bryan – go here http://www2.jdrf.org/site/TR?px=9970618&fr_id=5767&pg=personal

See you in Gladeville!
