663 miles in one day to Benefit Veterans

 

American Legion Riders post 663 Annual Little Ride

Welcome to our Inaugural Annual Little Ride”!!

The Annual Little Ride is a 663 (minimum) mile ride over any route within the state of Iowa, to be completed in one continuous ride in 18 hours or less.  THIS IS NOT A RACE!!  A little simple math will show that we have planned the ride with a minimum of 10 stops of at least 20 minutes (hopefully every 66.3 miles!!) for a “comfort” break.  Your reward for completing the Annual Little Ride??? A HOT LOOKING patch telling the world that you rode in and completed the Legion Riders Post 663 Annual Little Ride and that you now have a sore ass to prove it!

Our goal in building this ride is twofold, first, to bring a memorable, fun, ANNUAL event to our area, and secondly, to aid local veterans and their families.

 There is a fee of $30.00 per bike for this event.

 ALL PROCEEDS FROM THIS EVENT WILL GO TO BENEFIT VETERANS AND THEIR FAMILIES!!

We hope that our Annual Little Ride will become one of the most memorable annual events in the state!

COME RIDE 663 WITH 663!!!!
