This year the “rolling start” will be between 7:30-8:30 a.m. The ride features pavement routes of 16, 37 and 50 miles over beautiful country roads as well as self-supported gravel routes of 17 miles and 61 miles.
All routes can be done individually or combined for the ambitious cyclist to ride as far and as long as desired!. The pavement routes are fully supported with traffic control, sag wagons and rest stops providing water / snacks. All services and rest stops will close at 1 p.m. A complimentary BBQ lunch for all riders and volunteers will be served until 2 p.m.
On Saturday June 4th, an informal ride is available followed by a rider reception at the Old Fire Station in the town square from 6 to 8 PM. Come ride and dine and stay in Fayetteville. You will love our quaint town, with several restaurants and a variety of local lodging options.
Two classic French Vistus bicycles will be raffled as a part of the event. These classic 1980’s bikes, each worth over $2,000, were created and built in Saint-Etienne, France, the historic epicenter of Gallic bikes.
The Good Old Summertime Classic is a charity event hosted by Fayetteville Cycling. It is also a Bike MS: Texas MS 150 sanctioned training ride that is open to all levels and ages of cyclists. Over the last 23 years, Fayetteville Cycling has donated over $132,000 to the FISD and looks forward to continuing this program into the future. Learn more at https://www.fayettevillecycling.com.
