Format

Ride at your own pace. Checkpoints will be released at 9:00 am on July 14th. There will be 5 checkpoints, and 2 bonus checkpoints. You must collect tokens at the 5 regular checkpoints to enter your hand. If you hit the 2 bonus checkpoints, you get to draw an extra card for each. Choose your own route, ride at your own place to collect all the tokens, and redeem them for your poker hand at the wrap up BBQ supported by The Chopping Block at Lindsay Park later in the afternoon.

When

Riders can start to collect tokens from 9:00 am when the map is released. You must be at Lindsay Park between 4:00 and 5:00 to cash in your poker chips. After 5pm, we will have a BBQ and do prizing.

Group Ride

There will be a social group ride for those registered for the Poker ride leaving from Squirrel Crossing at 10:30. Feel free to join in and make it a social event!
