Dash for Cash

Westside Dash for Cash

June 21^{st at 8:30 am}

Know the Westside of town?? Think you’re fast?? Just feel like riding??^{Come on out to the Westside of Houston for smacking good time! We will
meet at the parking lot on the NW corner of Kirkwood and Memorial. We will
then have a nice little 20ish mile jaunt around the west side of Houston
racing for hordes of
cash
and possibly some
schwag.
The route can be accomplished by mostly riding on permeable trail
surfaces, but some street riding is necessary. Put on your map thinking
caps and your knowledge of the west side of town.}

There will be five official checkpoints that everyone must locate so that you can ride to the next checkpoint. Hints will be given as to permeable route selections. These may not be the fastest, but are always options. We will end up at a small town favorite hot spot and chow down and swap stories of the ride, so bring some food money.

This fun and tantalizing event involves riding your bike around the west side of Houston to see the local flora and fanua, and if you are speedy/lucky enough you may pick up some much needed cash for that next chi-chi bike part.

Entry fee is $10 with all proceeds going to help GHORBA build and maintain trails in and around the Houston area.
