2012 Roanoke Tweed Run route!

We're only a week away from this years Tweed Run! Don't let the upcoming storm scare you. We've been tracking the weather for a few weeks now and Sun and clear skys are on tab for this upcoming weekend.

This years route is approximately 5.2 miles through a large part of the Roanoke Green way and through downtown Roanoke. Another highlight is a short ride along the very cool Roanoke Railroad Walk where we will stop for our group photo. There is only minor hill to face this year, which is a bridge, and riding and crossing through active traffic will be very minimal. Don't worry though! We'll have our ride leaders helping people along the way and holding up cars so everyone makes it safely along the way. Click to see the map enlarged.
