The Chattanooga Bicycle Club and Outdoor Chattanooga present the 23rd edition of

The rigorous 100-mile option will take you through 3 states (Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia) and over 3 mountains (Suck Creek, Sand and Lookout). Climb and descend Lookout Mountain over the same course as the 2007 Tour de Georgia! The moderate 62-mile option spans 2 states (Tennessee and Georgia) and 1 mountain (Suck Creek).  There will not be a 25 mile route in 2010.

Date:  Saturday, May 1, 2010 – RAIN OR SHINE!!

Ride Time: Rides will depart at 7:30 a.m. sharp!

We are pleased to have Bike Tours Direct as our title sponsor this year. 

BikeToursDirect, based in Chattanooga, provides a one-stop resource for bike tours in Europe with more than 200 week long tours in 30 European countries.  Tours range from traditional bicycling settings such as Tuscany, Provence, Holland, Bavaria and the Loire and Danube Valleys to emerging cycling destinations such as Croatia, Spain, the Czech Republic and Poland and from leisure bike and boat vacations on the Danube River to challenging tours in the French Alps.

Rather than organize its own tours, BikeToursDirect represents European bike tour operators and offers their tours through the company’s website, www.biketoursdirect.com. The local tour companies tend to offer tours at considerable savings over North American-based companies with about half of the tours costing less than $1,000.

The company was founded by former Chattanooga Bicycle Club president Jim Johnson.
