RIDE DETAILS
Why The Mansion Ride?
Because we are all volunteer run. All the proceeds are donated to a charity (a proven, fiscally responsible, and heart wrencher charity). We get all of our food, printing and locations donated. We work super hard to give a great ride. We have experience and you get to see breathtaking Mansions. A Unique Ride, with heart.

When Can I turn in funds I raised? Mail it in at our registration by Mail Address or bring it on the day of our ride.
When Can I expect to Finish? Depends how fast you ride, silly. Most riders average 8-10 mph. Fastest are 15mph
I have a friend riding a longer route, will we be riding together?: Every route is a circle within a circle, which means that all ride routes will ride together to the first mansion and after that the routes split. The first split comes at around mile number 8. The next one happens at around mile 15. All riders begin and end at the same place. It may be a long wait, but you will reunite with other routes.
