Description

Party Ride

Distance - 11 to 40 miles. Depending on which route you choose.

Under new management, the C.C.C. is bringing the Tour de Skunk BACK TO LIFE! It's gonna be a PARTY! We're spreading the word to everyone and anyone who's ever rode the Skunk ride, as well as future generations who THINK they can keep up with the Veteran's. This year we've included plenty of activities to keep you entertained the entire day as well as 5 different routes for you to choose from. If you don't feel like riding, you can just hang out and enjoy a day full of fun and frolic. We're setting up the volleyball net and the horseshoes along with a new addition to the Skunk ride, a WATERSLIDE to cool you down throughout the day. Camping is provided across the road. IT'S GONNA BE A BLAST!!! So don't miss it! Music, dancing, friends, fun & frolic. We're serving some delicious, eye-opening breakfast beverages along with some awesome thirst-quenching drink specials we'll be having throughout the day. Leave when you want to and come back when you want to and enjoy the HOG ROAST with all the fixins'. Our CRAZY a** DJ will put on your favorite tunes to dance and karoke too, if your heart so desires!

Route

You'll have several different routes in which to choose from. You can ride anywhere from 10- 40 miles, round trip. Routes in this year's ride include a hilly jaunt to John's Steakhouse and Lounge in Prairie City, IA or a flat ride to Dick's Place in Mitchellville, then back to the golf course. Or, if that ain't enough ridin', from John's in Prairie City you can pedal on to the Neil Smith Wildlife Refuge where you can check out with your very own eyes the preservation of the VIRTUALLY EXTINCT, tallgrass prairie. A true piece of Iowa's natural heritage!
