The Armed Forces Cycling Classic Challenge Ride is an amateur ride, open to cyclists of all abilities. The ride will take place on Saturday, May 30, on a 20KM (12.5 mile) course, closed to traffic, starts and finishes in front of the Capitol, then heads into Arlington, traveling past the Pentagon, up to Roslyn, and back. The official start is at 7:00 am and all riders must be off the course by 10:00 am.

Riders can participate as a General Registrant or as a member of a Corporate Challenge Team. Also, consider fundraising for TAPS, our official beneficiary! 100% of the proceeds raised from TEAM TAPS will benefit this wonderful organization!
