Almost as delicious and locally handcrafted as Middle Ages is Ommegang.. just a short 90 mile ride down route 80. There is a ride being orchestrated by Syracuse Bicycle that sounds prettyyyy awesome…

Got any plans for this Saturday, August 20th? Join Syracuse Bicycle as they ride out to Brewery Ommegang!

The Syracuse Bicycle Point to Pint Ride is for cyclists who enjoy great beer, phenomenal scenery, the company of fellow riders and the opportunity to ride nearly 90 miles without a lot of hand holding.  Participants should be capable of averaging a pace of at least 15 mph.  There will be no formal rest or water stops; this is a self-supported event.

This non-competitive fun ride is not a race! Rather a unique event that will take you from Syracuse all the way to Brewery Ommegang in Cooperstown, traveling through some of the most scenic countryside in the state. There will be post-ride complimentary beverages available at Brewery Ommegang as well as special pricing for food and merchandise.

Riders and their bikes will be transported back to the start location. A change of clothes bag will be waiting for you at the brewery.

The ride starts at 9:45am, Saturday, August 20th, at Master Sun Chong’s Tae Kwon Do Center located at 8020 East Genesee Street in Fayetteville, NY near Four Seasons Golf and Ski Center.  The route travels east on State Route 5 and then south on State Rte 13 to connect with State Rte 80.  The majority of the ride follows Route 80 east through scenic rolling hills onward to Brewery Ommegang which is located just south of the village of Cooperstown.  A map, with directions, will be provided to all riders.   Brewery Ommegang is located at 656 County Highway 33, Cooperstown, NY.

Don’t miss out on the best ride of the summer! Register by Thursday, August 18th.

Cost: $45. Proceeds to benefit the Two Smiles, One Hope Foundation
