About the Ride:
On April 7 and 8, 2017, TJC will be hosting the second annual “TJC District Bike Tour” known as “90 for 90th”.
The ride starts at 10:00 AM both days. If you want to ride our bus to the start, please arrive early enough to register, bubble wrap your bike and load it on the truck, and get on the bus by 9:00AM.
The TJC bike tour is a great warm up for the coming season! 90 miles over two days… 45 miles per day. Day one starts at Quitman (Jim Hogg City Park) and ends at TJC; Day two starts at Jim Hogg Park in Rusk and ends at TJC. Both days offer a wonderful view of the beautiful East Texas scenery in the springtime… can’t ask for much better!
All levels of riders are welcome! You can get out and crank it in a couple of hours, or take your time and enjoy the beautiful East Texas scenery. SAG vehicles will be there to see to your every need, even if youneed help getting up a hill!
Transportation by bus and truck will be provided to the start both days! You can come to TJC, bubble wrap your bike and load it on the truck, and take a seat in the comfortable tour bus. We will get you and your bike to the start in time for the start of the ride. You need to arrive at TJC in time to register, wrap and depart by 7:00 am. There is plenty of parking at the TJC Hartley Field lot for all.
The routes are straightforward with plenty of signage, and maps will be available at registration.
