In honor of the 25th anniversary of Bike MS: Express Scripts Gateway Getaway Ride on September 12 & 13, 2009, the event will be moving its headquarters to the Boone County Fairgrounds in Columbia, Mo. The event began at this location in 2003. The Fairgrounds are located a couple miles north of I-70 off of MO-63 on the eastern side of Columbia. Using the Boone County Fairgrounds as the start, finish and overnight location for Bike MS 2009 allows the Gateway Area Chapter the opportunity to provide cyclists several features, including new 40, 75 and 100 mile routes highlighting the quaint lifestyle of Amish country. The new layout will also give cyclists a view of the finish line festivities from the team tent area. Additional details of the event will be released shortly. Cyclists and volunteers can register for the event at www.gatewayMSbikeride.org |
