Red Dress Day
Mileage | 121 Miles
Tonight’s Hotel:
Hilton Stamford Hotel & Executive Meeting Center
1 First Stamford Pl
Stamford, CT 06902
Mileage | OPTIONS:
While Riders have the option to complete all 121+ miles, those wishing to complete, with time to rest/stop at Rest Stops and Lunch, should be above a 13 mph average pace.
We will have a Cycle Express bus at our lunch stop at Mile 45 for those who wish to take that option directly to the hotel, putting their bike on our Cycle Express truck.
We have rest stop and sweep support on both options.
NOTE: We will be cutting off access to the 120+ mile full option after certain times in the afternoon (see Rest Stop Closure Times on Route Cues and on Rest Stop signage) to ensure our slower paced riders have the ability to stay on track with completion time before sunset that day
Keep up the great work riding and fundraising! Remind your friends and family that they can still give by posting your progress on social media over the weekend. Be sure to shout out the Ride by including #cycleforthecause, #EndAIDS, #C4C2024, and tagging The Center @lgbtcenternyc.
