About the ride:
The “Magical Museum Bike Tour” is a fundraiser and social ride for the Houston Bicycle Museum starting and finishing in Schulenburg, Texas. This year we have a great goal! Thanks to an anonymous donor, if the ride raises $25,000, the Houston Bicycle Museum will receive a matching grant of $25,000.
The “Magical Museum Bike Tour” is a fundraiser and social ride for the Houston Bicycle Museum starting and finishing in Schulenburg, Texas. It features rides of different lengths on low traffic country roads and will also provide you with a chance to visit the famous “painted churches” of Fayette County. Each of the routes will cross a piano-wire truss bridge erected in 1885 (that’s 131 years ago). Also, there will be a historian on site at the Saint Cyril Methodius Catholic Church in Dubina to provide historical context for your enjoyment and education.
Registration begins at 7:00 am and complimentary refreshments will be available. The ride will begin at 9:30 am.
After the ride, tour the local wineries for tastings then visit the Stanzel Model Aircraft Museum and Texas Polka Music Museum.
Go early and spend the night enjoying the little town with its historical Czech flavor. An area map will be available for those of you who want to stay over and explore the roads of Fayette County on Sunday. The roads in the area are all lightly traveled. These would be “on-your-own” unsupported rides.
Come join us October 5, 2019 for a great ride for a good cause, the funding for the Houston Bicycle Museum!
