Description

Celebrate National Bike Month and help raise funds for the Augusta Canal National Heritage Area at this DIY edition of the Lock to Lock Ride!  And we're giving you 9 days to get it done and have some fun!

Ride 37 or 18.5 miles along the scenic Historic Augusta Canal Area and the Savannah River.  The route consist of hard packed dirt, grass, sand, and paved roads.  We've plotted three route options, all start/end at Andy Jordan's Bicycle Warehouse.  If you're doing your ride during store hours, feel free to use AJBW as a rest stop!

Free commemorative event T-Shirt for all registrants and the chance to win some great prizes with our photo contest raffle.

Registration is $25 and is non-refundable.

100% of net proceeds and all donations benefit the Augusta Canal National Heritage Area

Additional fundraiser tees are $20 each.
In an effort to maximize the fundraising potential, T-Shirts are being printed to order.  That said, t-shirts will be available for pick up after the event registration deadline.  We will email you once your order is ready.  If you live out of town, we're happy to ship your order!
