The 3rd Annual LBJ 100 Bicycle Tour on March 27, 2010 will signal the beginning of the spring cycling season in the gorgeous Hill Country of Texas. Beginning (9:00 AM) and ending on the air strip of the historic LBJ Ranch, with routes of 10, 30, 44, and 65 miles, the venue is one of scenic, quiet country lanes and hilly, traffic-free, smooth-surface ranch roads. There's a cycling route for all abilities!


As an added feature, Luci Baines Johnson will lead a 'Historical Tour of the LBJ Ranch' (2:00 PM depart). This narrated tour of the ranch landmarks is a not-to-be-missed event included in the registration price. Listen to Presidential history from someone who lived it!


An exciting new addition to the 2010 LBJ 100 is the addition of historic Gillespie County rural schools as rest stops. What better way to honor Lyndon B. Johnson, the thirty-sixth President of the United States, widely acknowledged as the 'Education President'! His progressive education bills and many of his 'Great Society' legislation programs were designed in the tranquility of his ranch. This truly will be a 'Ride to Preserve History'!


For more information, contact Nolan Kuehn (210-355-2645) or Ethel Pedraza (210-414-8559).


Conducted by the Friends of LBJ National Historical Park and the Hill Country Bicycle Touring Club, the tour provides net proceeds for the betterment of the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park.
