The 3nd Annual Saranac Lake Tandem Rally
Friday through Sunday, June 15th to June 17th, 2012. Get on your tandem and ride with us on one of the three scenic routes Saturday and Sunday. With the terrain ranging from rolling to hilly, the rides will be fun for both families and speedsters. Both days have rides ranging from 14 miles to metric centuries. Detailed cue sheets and maps are provided for all rides. Following the rides, we'll gather for a barbecue and socializing. We'll provide the main course such as our famous barbecue, hot dogs, vegetarian lasagna, etc.; as well as a range of drinks, and picnic necessities.
We ran the Southern Tier Tandem Rally for 17 years and are continuing that tradition of hosting the best small tandem rally in the country!. Families join the rides with child stokers as well as trailers with smaller children. The rides, the barbecue, and the chance to share stories with other tandem pairs, all combine to make a great weekend.
The fun begins Friday! The rally begins Friday afternoon at 3:00 with a 'get-acquainted' 15 mile group ride. There will be a wine and cheese and hors-d'oeurves get-together at 7PM Friday night at our house, rally headquarters.
Saturday and Sunday you will be able to choose from a variety of rides to
suit your distance and terrain desires. Following the rides we gather back
at our house for an afternoon of socializing. Pre-registration: by May 15th - $65 for the three days or $30 per bike for Sunday only. Late registration is $15 extra.
