Registration has closed for this event. You can still ride. Please show up at least 30 minutes before the start to sign in.
Preregistration closed at 8pm on Friday, December 20. Same-day registration is available (be prepared to show the organizers that your RUSA membership is current), however preregistration helps us to plan ahead and better serve riders.
There will be two options for this year's Winter Solstice ride; a 100 km route and an overlapping 200 km route. Both will start and end at the AAA Washington headquarters building in Factoria (next to T-Mobile). We are grateful for AAA's hospitality, allowing everyone to park securely and get ready in a warm, protected venue. Arrive early for check-in and enjoy something to eat and drink ahead of your ride. If you have festive lighting for your bike, bring it along to add a splash of fun.
Showers and lockers available. You're welcome to change before the ride and/or clean up and warm up after the ride.
