Join us for the 27th Annual Clarksville Rotary Annual Metric (CRAM) ride on May 23, 2020. With distances of 100, 62, 33 and 20 miles to choose from through some of the flattest country around. This ride promises to be fast and fun! The CRAM is sponsored by the Clarksville Rotary Club to support our projects for our efforts in our communities, both local and international.
The CRAM begins and ends at Rossview High School at 1237 Rossview Road, Clarksville, TN. The course travels over the rural roads of Todd and Logan Counties in Kentucky, offering little traffic to contend with and even the chance to see some of the area’s Mennonites in their horse-drawn carriages. All routes pass local favorite, Beachhaven Winery, which has scheduled a "Jazz on the Lawn" for Saturday at 6pm. Make plans to stay for this fun, free and incredible event.
So come out and enjoy one of the best supported and flattest rides in the South! Don’t miss the spaghetti dinner (with iced tea, bread and Dilly bar ice cream) following the ride and included with your registration. By request, we are also having GLUTEN FREE pasta available this year. Showers will also be available after the ride until 2:45pm and close at 3pm.
This event supports the many projects The Clarksville Rotary Club does in the community. Thank you for supporting Rotary, doing good things in our community for you and your families. If you are interested in sponsoring the CRAM, please reach out to us at our facebook, website or email.
DONATIONS are accepted at the Clarksville Rotary Facebook Page.
