The 8th Annual Trek Women Breast Cancer Awareness Ride, which is open to men and women of all ages and abilities, will start at Pedals & Petals on Main Street at 10 a.m. and go down South Shore Road towards Old Forge.
Participants can choose between an 11.6-mile or a 20.8-mile ride.
Ride support, ride leaders, and a ride reception will be provided by Pedals and Petals.
Registration is currently open and interested bikers can sign up at Pedals & Petals, or on-line at pedalsandpetals.com.
The fee is $30. On-line registration closes on Friday, October 11 at noon.
Registration forms will also be available from 8 to 9:45 a.m. on the day of the event.
One hundred percent of the registration fees will go directly to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
The first 50 registrants will receive a gift bag, and all participants will have an opportunity to register on-site for door prizes and a national sweepstakes for a Trek Lexa road bike.
