Ride The Rock - Gravel Ride

Ride the recently opened Rock Island Spur of the Katy Trail . 47 miles with sags every 10 miles. Spend a weekend doing something you like and helping out others at the same time.

The “Ride the Rock” bike ride is being sponsored by Windsor Lodge #187 as a way to celebrate the 150th Anniversary of the lodge as well as to raise money for two worthy charities.

As you leave Pleasant Hill, MO on Saturday, July 21 you will be riding down the right-of-way of the former Rock Island Railroad.  You will have the opportunity to visit the communities of Medford, Chilhowee and Leeton before ending up in Windsor.

Once in Windsor, riders will have the opportunity to camp at Windsor’s Farrington Park.  The park is located next to the trail, as the Farrington Park Lake was built by the Rock Island Railroad as a watering stop for its steam locomotives.

There will be free entertainment, food vendors and other activities planned for the riders and the non-riders as well.

A portion of the money raised will be going to two charities; St. Jude Children’s Hospital and P.E.T.
