Ride: The Thirteenth Annual Heritage Foundation Tour de Muleshoe rolls along scenic farmland and sandhills for you to ride either fast or slow as you choose. This is not a race-- enjoy yourself. Each entry will receive a ticket to our Spaghetti Dinner, 11:30 am to 2:00 pm Saturday.		Registration: Pre-registration accepted thru June 12th. Pre-registrants are eligible for a drawing for $500 in cold hard cash. Late registration is accepted the day of the race between 7:00- 9:00 am at the Bailey County Coliseum, 2206 West American Blvd. Ride packets will not be mailed; they may be picked up Saturday morning before the ride. Packets include water bottle, ride number, route map, collector T-shirt, and meal ticket.
Extras: Drawings for door prizes will be held after all riders are in. (Drawing for the $500 cold hard cash for Pre-registrants only will also be held at this time.)		Ride Numbers: Numbers must be worn so they are visible from the front to receive SAG Wagon support and service at rest stops. Ride will be held rain or shine. No refunds.
Course: All three rides start at the Bailey County Coliseum, 2206 W American Blvd, Muleshoe, Texas, at 9:00 a.m. and follow a triangle course: the 10 mile is flat with good shoulders, one rest stop at halfway; the 40 mile begins with small rolling hills for the first 10 miles, followed by 12 miles of scenic sandhills, ending in 18 miles of small smooth ups and downs; the 100k follows similar road conditions for longer distances, all end back in Muleshoe at the starting line.		Support: SAG wagons and support vehicles will be furnished. Each rest stop will provide cold energy drink, water, fresh fruit, shade, and encouragement. Rest stops are to be used and you will miss a treat if you ride by. Rest stops are marked on the course map.
