Cycle Fest Ride for Veterans
Hey, FABB members, now is a great time to register for the 9th Annual Cycle Fest Ride for Veterans, which will be held on Sunday, September 16, 2018, at the Molon Lave Vineyards in Warrenton.
Sponsored by the Jewish Community Center of Northern Virginia, this is a supported ride through the beautiful countryside around Warrenton. There are options for rides of 18, 44, and 64 miles (metric century) with plenty of rest stops and snacks. After the ride, bicyclists and their families and friends can relax at the vineyard for lunch, wine, and live music by Seth Kibel and his swinging band. Everyone who registers for the ride will also be entered into a raffle for wine, art, and a new bike ($1,500 value!).
Cycle Fest benefits veterans and their families through IMPart (Injured Military
Personnel +art), a visual arts education program that connects returning
wounded veterans with transformative art experiences in ceramics and metals. A program of local, non-profit The Art League, IMPart is part of CREATIVE FORCES - NEA Military Healing Arts Network.
For details on routes and launch times, visit jccnv.org/cyclefest. If you register by August 1, the cost will be $50 for the 18-mile ride and $ 65 for the 44- and 64-mile routes. After August 2, the cost will increase to $55 for the 18-mile route and $80 for the other two rides.
But, don’t wait! Space is limited! Register on bikereg.com/cyclefest2018 (service fee applies) or complete the registration form here and return it to the Jewish Community Center of Northern Virginia, 8900 Little River Turnpike, Fairfax, VA 22031.
