Riding through Franklin on the 2016 Lion Pride Ride |
Coming up this Saturday is the
Lion Pride Ride in Franklin Indiana. This is a fundraiser for the organizations which the Franklin Lions Club supports. There are three mileage options:
- 12 mile family ride
- 30 mile intermediate ride
- 62 mile pride ride
The cost of the family ride is $30 per family, up to five family members. The other two options are $25 if you
pre-register online, or $30 on the day of the ride. Police officers, veterans, and active duty military personnel may ride for free. Before the ride, doughnuts from
Long's Bakery (Their doughnuts are hands down the best in Indy) will be available at no additional charge. After the ride,
Hillbilly Hot Dogs will be onsite, and you may purchase an after ride snack.
Circle City Bicycles has a personal connection to this ride. Phil Thorpe was an active member of the Franklin Lions club before he passed away in 2016. He was one of the key organizers of this ride. Phil also worked part time at Circle City Bicycles for a number of years.
