Every Year EBC hosts this amazing event to benefit a charity or charities, and to give our die-hard road cyclist an opportunity to do a longer, catered and SAG supported ride each year.
THIS ANNUAL EVENT BEGINS WITH ONE LAP AROUND THE HOMESTEAD MIAMI SPEEDWAY, then continues through rural south Miami-Dade County. Best supplied rest stops! Plenty of water, sports drinks, fresh fruit, bagels and much more! SAG provided by local bike shops at each rest stop, as well as roaming SAG on the route. Nominal charges for parts. Well marked routes! Grandstands at the Speedway will be open to the public for the mass start promptly at 7:30am! Gate opens at 6:30am, ready for you to park and get ready for a road cycling ride of a lifetime!
