LBJ 100 Bicycle Tour
Want to learn a little presidential history from the seat of your bicycle?
The fourth Annual LBJ 100 Bicycle Tour, “A Ride to Preserve History,” is scheduled for March 26 at the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park.
The ride begins at 9 a.m. on the historic LBJ Ranch airstrip near Stonewall. Cyclists can choose from 10, 30, 44 or 65-mile routes.
Luci Baines Johnson will also lead a 10-mile historical tour or the ranch starting at 2:30 p.m. That tour will include her personal stories about her parents and life on the ranch in the 1960s. It includes several stops at various historic locations.
Cost is $40 (discounts for children, tandem riders and families) and includes the ride route of your choice, a post-ride hot meal, ranger-led tour of the Texas White House, and the tour led by Luci Johnson.
Registration is online at www.LBJ100BicycleTour.org.
The LBJ 100 Bicycle Tour is sponsored by the Friends of Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park, the Hill Country Bicycle Touring Club, the National Park Service, and Western National Parks and Monuments Association. All net proceeds will support the educational programs and historic preservation of Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park.
