Easton, MD - On Sunday, September 17, ShoreRivers will host its 19th Ride for Clean Rivers—a chance for cyclists to ride the beautiful back roads of Talbot and Queen Anne’s counties in support of the organization’s work for clean waterways.
Riders of all ages and levels are welcome to register for fully supported Metric Century (62-mile), 35-mile, or 20-mile routes. All routes begin and end at Chesapeake College in Wye Mills and include tech support from Bike Doctor Kent Island, SAG support from Queen Anne's County Amateur Radio Club, and rest stops with food and drink from Sprout. This year, each rider will receive a pair of custom ShoreRivers Tribe socks.
Staggered group send-offs at 8am and 9am will include a police escort across Route 50. Upon returning to the college campus, riders and volunteers will enjoy a boxed lunch from Sprout and beer from Ten Eyck Brewery. Participants are also encouraged to join teams and create their own fundraising pages to boost support for their ride from others.
ShoreRivers extends special thanks to these sponsors and partners: Out of the Fire, PEAKE Technology Partners, Sprout, Bike Doctor Kent Island, Chesapeake College, Ten Eyck Brewing Company, TriCycle & Run, and MDOT, as well as volunteers from the Talbot Skipjacks 4-H Club, and Queen Anne's County Amateur Radio Club.
All proceeds from this event support ShoreRivers’ science-based education, restoration, and water quality monitoring programs. Registration prices will increase after August 31. To sign up as a rider or sponsor, visit shorerivers.org/event/rideforcleanrivers. Any questions can be directed to ffarley@shorerivers.org.
