The route is a total of approximately 60 miles. 

The ride ends at 5 p.m. in Harshaw. All completed stamped forms need to be turned in by 5 p.m. the day of the ride.

This ride benefits Camp American Legion and proceeds are used to purchase peanuts for the campers to feed to the chipmunks as well as help other veterans programs. 

Camp American Legion is the only camp of its type in the United States where the veterans can attend at no cost to them. Come join us on this ride and help make memories that last a lifetime for the veterans that visit Camp American Legion.
