What: We’ve hosted this ride annually since 2018. This year is your choice of four ride options: (1&2) pick one of two cross-Kansas, overnight adventure rides both totaling more than 400 miles apiece, and both ending in Garnett for a Saturday night steak dinner with all the trimmings; (3) a 100-ish mile guided day ride around our four-county area on Saturday meeting up at dinner that night , or (4)an “All Roads” ride from your home through your favorite waypoints ending in Garnett in time for chow Saturday night. No matter how you ride, the plan is to rally up at the Garnett VFW Post Saturday night by 6 p.m.
When: Friday June 3-Sunday June 5. Rain date the following weekend
