Tour de Brookville Fall Bicycle Classic

3rd Annual Tour de Brookville Fall Bicycle Classic set for 9 am, Sat.,Oct. 6 beginning at the Depot St. Trailhead in Brookville.
The bike tour, held annually during fall foliage season, is NOT a race and there is no fee or pre-registration necessary. All participants will receive the new TDB 2018 edition logo they can place on their favorite t-shirt or jersey. Riders interested in completing the full 23-mile road tour will pedal the Depot Spur to the Redbank Valley Trail and travel 8 miles to the Summerville trailhead. From there, they can take to the road, doing a combination of flat terrain, rolling hills, challenging climbs, and exhilirating descents visiting the areas of Mount Pleasant, Ohl, Stanton and Belgiumtown before returning back to the trailhead in Brookville. Two breaks are planned, and a sag wagon will be provided carrying additional energy bars, drinks and other supports throughout the road portion. All riders are expected to wear a helmet and to bring water bottles filled with water or energy drinks to stay hydrated.
Those opting not to do the road portion, can stay on the Redbank Trail in Summerville and continue south toward Heathville. They should monitor their time as all riders should be back to the trailhead in Brookville by 12:15 pm. A post-ride celebration luncheon will follow at the end of the tour in downtown Brookville. Donations toward the cost of future maintenance of the trail will be accepted, with checks made out to the Redbank Valley Trails Association. These will be collected at the completion of the tour or at the luncheon. For more information, contact John Pozza at 814-648-3739 or jpozza@comcast.net.
