BFSC Ride Schedule for April 28 & 29

Wish our BFSC riders participating in the North FL Bicycle Club’s Tour de Forts bike ride on Sunday, April 29 a safe and fun ride.

At Mickler’s Beach Access on Saturday, April 28, there will be a 5K Run sponsored by the Save the Sea Turtles at 9:00. Registration begins at 8:00. The run will be held on the beach, so the Saturday BFSC ride will NOT interfere with their run, but watch out for the increase traffic around Mickler’s Beach Access as pass though going out and returning. REMEMBER to be courteous to this group.
