"No Rest for the Wicked" Winter Tour 2021 GENERAL INFO: It's almost time for the 12th Annual Violet Crown Winter Tour. This year the Winter Tour is longer than ever. We have a record 16 stages planned and NO REST DAYS! Our Winter Tour historian says that's one more stage than we've ever offered. Who's going to ride all of them? Take a few days off work if possible, gather up your winter kit, and join the fun! All weekday rides will roll from Russell's Bakery & Coffee Bar, 3339 Hancock Dr. at 9:00am sharp for 40-55 miles at a conversational winter pace. Please park your bike/gather on the Balcones Dr (west) side of the building. If you drive to the ride, please park your vehicle around the corner at Highland Park Elementary. Weekend rides will be The Bagel Ride on Saturdays at 8:30 and the Mellow Johnny's ride on Sundays with an 8:15 rollout. Details about these two rides at https://violetcrown.org/ride In case of inclement or really cold weather, announcements will be made to the Violet Crown members email list and the Winter Tour Facebook Event page https://fb.me/e/1VyS3jBM3
