WILD GOOSE CHASE 2009

Terry and Bike Wear™ invites you to attend the 2009 Wild Goose Chase, the second annual running of this bicycle ride for women which benefits the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge near Cambridge, MD on the Eastern Shore. The Refuge provides critically important habitat for hundreds of species and unsurpassed cycling for everyone who rides there.

The full $35 registration fee goes to the Friends of Blackwater for the benefit of the Refuge. Come and join us for a day of riding in and around the Refuge (lengths vary from 10 to 62 miles), eating, shopping and meeting new friends. The terrain is dead flat, the scenery is spectacular and the roads are quiet. It’s perfect for everyone from beginners just getting into the sport to seasoned pros who want some early season miles to get reacquainted with the bike. Loosen up the legs and contribute to a great cause at the same time.

In addition to riding your bike, you can shop for Terry and Gore apparel, test ride a Terry bike, enjoy a massage, participate in a yoga session conducted by Andria Davis and take a chance in our raffle. After ride food will be provided by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and the Eastern Shore Land Conservancy. And, yes, we will have a well-stocked goodie bag for you!

If you’d like to make a weekend of it, we’ll be offering guided kayak tours, self-guided bike rides and a bird walk the Saturday before.

Last year’s ride sold out in days, so don’t delay! We’re planning for 700 riders this year. As of today, we’ve already taken registrations from over 300 riders.
