Home of the Sunset

In addition to our 5-day/300 mile Key West Bike Ride, we are pleased to offer a 3-day, 140 mile, FL-Keys-Only portion of our 14th annual Key West Bike Ride (Monday to Wednesday)! Participants are encouraged to meet us in Homestead, FL at our host church on Sunday afternoon/evening for an abbreviated version of our Orientation. This will also be a great time of community and integration with the cyclists who have already been riding for 2 days from Fort Myers.

On Monday morning, your 3-day tour begins with a ride that will see you enter the Florida Keys from Homestead via the bypass. Beautiful and scenic views are revealed half-way thru the day. Key Lime Pie awaits your arrival into the FL Keys on Monday afternoon.  Tuesday morning, your 2nd day of cycling takes you on Route 1 South to Marathon. That day you’ll enjoy feeding the tarpon at Robbie’s of Islamorada and a few other treats. Arriving in Marathon, you will meet an amazing pastor and congregation there who are always excited to host us for worship. The views at dinner are almost as incredible as the food and company. Wednesday will be your 3rd and final day of cycling – 50 miles from Marathon to the Southernmost Point of Key West. By this point, you’ll have truly bonded and made lifetime memories with your team. Make sure you snap a picture at Mile Marker Zero before going to see the beautiful sunset that God paints at Mallory Square.

The total participants between the 3-day and 5-day KWBR tours are limited to 40 cyclists and 15 Support Staff. There is the possibility of a waiting list if the tour begins to get full. As always, your registration will not be complete until payment has been received.

Thursday morning (March 13th), we’ll give you a ride back to Homestead or Ft. Myers at 7am. 3-day participants have the same fundraising goal as 5-day participants.
