Lancaster Pre-ride #1

This is the first of several planned pre-rides for the Lancaster Country Ride on April 10th. The ride will start at the Ferris Junior High School/Yellow Jacket Stadium at 10am on Saturday, 3/6/21. The stadium address is 1002 E. 8th Street, Ferris, TX.

There will be two routes to test out - a 25 mile and a 44 mile - so there will be two groups riding. Please sign up using the Register Now button if you would like to join this pre-ride.

Here are the GPS routes. Paper cue sheets will be available at the start but it's better to download the route to your GPS and follow along that way.
44 mile: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/35299014

Please note that this is a pre-ride on new routes so you need to watch your GPS closely. Be sure to make notes along the way (ride with a pen or use your phone) so you don't have to try to remember the issues after the ride.  These are brand new routes so the GPS and cue sheets have not been followed before like previous years. 

There will not be accessible restrooms at the start of the pre-ride. The closest would be the Jack in the Box restaurant at 75 and 660. During the pre-ride the 25-mile route has one rest stop with water and restrooms at mile 14.1. The 44-mile route has rest stops at miles 23.1 and 35.5. 

Be sure to bring masks, money, cell phone, repair supplies, nutrition, and water. 

One more important note: All members who want to ride the course should do so during the pre-rides and not on rally day. We need all hands on deck to help volunteer on rally day.  Some volunteers may need to do two assignments so we have adequate coverage.  We pre-ride in order to check out the course but it also allows riders to experience the route(s).  It takes a crew to pull off this event!  

By now it should go without saying: Please DO NOT RIDE if you have tested positive for Covid-19 or if you feel sick!
