2nd ANNUAL RIDE THE RIDGE BIKE CHALLENGE
Sunday, June 1, 2008

On Sunday, June 1 we have a fun and rewarding way for the community to team together to participate in the High Meadow 2nd annual bike challenge “Ride The Ridge.” Created to raise funds to help the Marbletown First Aid Unit (EMS) and High Meadow’s new Performing Arts Center, the challenge consists of three routes – a five- mile ride, 25 mile ride, and a 50 mile ride. All courses go through Ulster County, beginning and ending at High Meadow located on Rt. 209 in Stone Ridge.

The five-mile family ride extends throughout the beautiful rural countryside before returning to High Meadow Performing Arts Center. The 25-mile will extend through High Falls, Rosendale, New Paltz, and then head back to Stone Ridge. The 50 mile ride continues along the Swangunk Moutain of New Paltz and Gardiner. Stay tuned for new registration guidelines and dates.
