About the Ride: Pedaling the Prairie is a non-competitive bike ride held annually around the rice fields and prairie between Bellville and Katy, Texas. All proceeds benefit the athletic department of Faith West Academy.
Ride in comfort knowing that there will be breakpoints every 10 — 15 miles. Refreshments will be provided at all breakpoints to keep you hydrated and energized. Your safety and well-being is our major concern, as we will have well planned routes, police escorts through major intersections, and mechanical and medical support at the rest stops. SAG vehicles and Ride Marshall support will also be included.
The ride travels along several courses ranging from a 24-mile beginner ride to over a 71-mile endurance ride. The various routes take you around the Monaville, Pattison, and Bellville areas. You can expect to experience the prairie, rolling meadows, rural flatlands, and some hills close to Bellville.
