Save the date: Thursday July 16th. The Auburn Opelika Cycling Community comes together to celebrate the Tour De France!

Red Clay Brewing Company has agreed to turns its televisions to the Tour for us at 7pm to watch that day's mountain stage. In addition to great beer and root beer, Niffer's at the Tracks delivers to Red Clay in case you need some of their legendary food. Which you might need because...

Before we gather there, the usual Thursday Night Ride will transition to Opelika for that week, starting at 5:30pm in front of Red Clay on North Railroad Ave in Opelika. Expect 12-14 rolling miles in Opelika with no one left behind. We should be done in time to grab a cold beer and socialize while watching Stage 12.

You do not have to ride to join us at 7pm, come one and all!
