ANTELOPE BY MOONLIGHT

The full moons in 2018 will be June 29, and July 27. We are opting to have the 25th anniversary ride on July 27th to avoid any interactions with no-see-ums (sandflies).

Join us for the 25th annual family friendly, non-competitive bike ride at Antelope Island State Park, in the middle of Great Salt Lake.

The ride starts July 27, 2018 at 10pm (check-in starts at 7:30pm) at White Rock Bay and is lit by the full moon. The 24 mile route goes from White Rock Bay to the historic Fielding Garr Ranch and back. The road is asphalt- road or mountain bikes are great.
