33nd GDB Super Bowl Ride
Greater Dallas Bicyclists | www.greaterdallasbicyclists.com
Cycling enthusiasts will ride from sites all over the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex to the West End in Dallas for the 33nd Annual Greater Dallas Bicyclists Super Bowl Sunday Ride meeting at Dick’s Last Resort & other area restaurants. For the past 33 years, GDB has partnered with bike shops and bicycle clubs all over the metroplex to host a bicycle ride that starts everywhere in Dallas-Fort Worth and converges on the West End in downtown Dallas. The ride is free, the people are fun, and the food is great, so don’t miss this DFW cycling tradition.
Find a start location near you, show up at the designated time, and pedal through the streets of Dallas and surrounding cities with plenty of friends. If you wear spandex, wear your club, team, or cycling store jersey. If you’re into fixies, cruisers, Critical Mass, or Cycle Chic, we’d love to see you too!
This is an event for ALL cyclists!
12 starting locations all over the MetroPlex…! …
