Recap and Results

The Recap and Results for the 2012 Heroic Bike Race is now available on the page link.  Congratulations to everyone!

A Heroic Day!

Thank you to all participants who made the 2012 Heroic Bike Race another terrific day! A Recap and Results page (and hopefully, some pictures) will be posted in the next day or two. 

Park Directions

For those of you traveling down Hwy 52 from the Twin Cities on Saturday: Don't make the mistake of taking the wrong exit for Byllesby Park.  The exit sign you see for "Lake Byllesby Park" is the county park.  That is the wrong one!  Make sure you ignore that exit sign and travel all the way down to the Hwy 19 exit at Cannon Falls and then turn right.  About a mile down the road you will see the park on your right.

Looks like "Heroic" weather for Saturday.  Come prepared! 

The Details

A reminder to all registered participants to review the 2012 Information page.
