The name of
this ride will be obvious to the adventureous cyclist choosing the
100 mile route. You will experience some of the
most beautiful,
rugged and hostile landscape in the country. The perfect location
for the maximum security
Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary.
Fortunately, the roads
are well maintained, the decents are fast and the climbs separate
whoever needs to be separated. The
70 mile route is
not for the faint of heart. Although you won't pass by Brushy
Mountain State Penetentiary, or be attacked by the
Frozen Head
assent, you still have pleanty of challenging climbs, fast descents
and navigational challenges to deal with, so be
alert.
The decision
point to go for the 100 mile or settle for the 72 mile route
comes at 26 miles into the ride. You just have to ask
yourself,
"Do I Feel Lucky Today."
Plus...
Your new friends at the Travel Authority in Farragut located next
door to West Bicycles has really stepped up by donating
three
Garmin 205 GPS's valued at $199
each to be given away at random to three successful Jail
Breakers.
Plus...
From West Bicycles, on Saturday July 19th only, every rider receives
a $10 credit on anything in the store upon
completion of the
ride. To get the credit just turn in your ID bracelet that you wear
during the ride.
Plus... Five dollars ($5) of
every entry fee will be donated to the
Philadelphians Prison Ministery.
They have not been told that this
event will benefit the
Philadelphians Ministry. Won't they be suprised?
Plus... The top 10 Jail
Breakers from each route will have their mug shot displayed on the
Jail Break web page.
Plus... Accurate maps and queue sheets
Plus... Local sheriff's will be
anticipating cyclist and hopefully won't mistake you for
escapees.
