BIKE the MMAPP
Join us September 21, 2024 for a scenic bike tour at the base of the Mission Mountains on the rolling pastoral roads of the Mission Valley. This year we'll be riding a gorgeous route near Ronan, MT. Along the way, riders will stop and visit four to six local, sustainable farms with local food bites offered at each stop. This year we are offering a 40-50 mile route. The route is mostly paved rural roads, with the exception of short stretches of gravel. Please be prepared with a bike that is ready for our rural roads which sometimes include uneven pavement and potholes and short stretches of gravel. More details below.
Save $20 and help us plan for the ride. We are offering an early-bird rate through July 1st, of $95/person. Registrations after July 1st will be $115/each. There is a processing fee as well (6.5% + $1.25). The registration fee includes your ride, local food from Mission Valley farms and producers, music, and a commemorative item to keep. The day starts and ends in the heart of the quaint, agricultural community of Ronan. We’ll serve coffee before embarking at 9am, but please eat breakfast prior to arrival so you're ready for a full day of riding. We'll tour farms and regional attractions along the route and light bites of local food will be served at each stop along the ride. We'll end the day back in Ronan for a delicious farm-to-table dinner prepared with local ingredients and beer from Ronan Cooperative Brewery. There will also be local music from the Western Montana Musicians Cooperative and an artisan's farmers market at the end of the bike ride. This is a low-waste event, and we encourage riders to bring back their cups and mugs from previous years to use at the dinner. We look forward to seeing you in September! #MMAPP2024 #bikethemmapp
