2011 YANA Ride - Sunday August 28th

What started out as a challenge to road riding enthusiasts has shaped into something much more powerful and beneficial. Originally, the goal of the Century Ride was to complete a 100 mile (or 160 kilometer) road ride throughout the Comox Valley. Then ride coordinator Les Black of Blacks Cycle decided that perhaps those who ride for their own health and wellness may be able to support those who are preoccupied with the critical health of someone they love. An extra challenge can been woven into the century ride: Can you ride 100 miles and Challenge yourself! Can you ride 100 miles? There are no trophies awaiting at the finish line, nor are there points for competitors or prizes for age categories. What there will be is other enthusi-asts, like yourself who seek challenging rides to keep fit and meet other riders who enjoy similar feats.

Ride begins at 9am, so show up a bit early to socialize and prepare for the ride.

Preregister at Blacks or register day of starting at 7am Sunday August 28th. Minimum $20 dollar donation to do the ride, OR go and get as many pledges as you can.

The Family Ride begins at noon.

Free bbq after the ride.
