• Check-in
• Bike helmet that fits well
• Children be able to ride a bicycle some. Bike trailers are welcome
• At least 1 parent must be with all your children; you are responsible for them
• Check tires, steering, and brakes on bike before the event
• Wear appropriate jacket, bike riding clothing, gloves, and shoes (suggested)
• We suggest a small backpack to bring a bottle of water unless dad or mom has it
• Waivers will be sent via e-mail or at the event the day of. Need to have one for each family with names of all bicyclists and children with you. Nobody will take part in this part of the event without a signed waiver by parent or guardian.
• We have checked out this route a few times. We recommend families with younger children only go as far as where you cross the road to ride around the lake; to turn around and go back. There’s too many roads to cross in town. We will have this bike trail marked with arrows, to show which way to go, as there are trails veering off. We hope to have a lead bicyclist in case there are any problems but it’s not a promise so you should be able to do this route alone.

From 5:00-7:00 P.M. we will have our “End of the Road Celebration.” Invite family, friends and those who donated to your Bike-A-Thon Campaign for complimentary light supper & speakers.
