The purpose of this “Ride 25 on Friday 4/25” ride is to “Ride and Have Fun” (as Big G would say) and is a “Teaser” of the upcoming longer “25 Ride on May 25” ride to enjoy some of the best “twisty” and “scenic” roads in central Alabama! All current HOG chapter members are welcome.

Ride Theme: “Ride 25 on Friday 4/25”

Ride Plan: The ride will cover approximately 87 miles (+/-) in a large loop with a break at the historic Sterrett Quickmart after the twisty bits of 25 and then a planned quick lunch stop in Chelsea at Dos Botellas Mexican. The route will take 119 from HOD to Elliot Lane to 25 to Winburn, Vandiver, and Sterrett (Alabama’s “Tail of the Dragon”) continuing on 25 through the towns of Vincent, Harpersville, Wilsonville, and Columbiana to Chelsea on 47, and back via old 280, Highway 11, 52, and 35 through the park to HOD. Riding time is approximately 2 hours plus breaks and lunch (two planned stops for a break and quick lunch).
