This tour has been attracting participants from out of state, as well as in-state riders for more than 20 years and has become a favorite for many. Temperatures ranging from the low 60's to the mid 80's, great support for the riders and Saturday night's dinner social make this ride one you will want to do again and again!!

The White Mountain Tour is a two-day fully supported tour and includes sag support, emergency mechanical support, plenty of good snacks and luggage delivery to your hotel or campsite. Saturday night's dinner and a raffle ticket are also included in the entry fee.

The cost of the tour is $50.00 for PMBC/GABA/ABC club members. $55.00 for non-members. A $10.00 late fee applies after June 27th.

Saturday night's dinner, which is included in the entry fee, will be served from 1:00-3:00 PM. Non-riders and family members can purchase dinner for an additional fee (TBD). This year the dinner has been moved to Ramsey Park in Eager and will be served as the riders finish.

For Saturday night lodging there will be free camping which includes showers and bathroom facilities at the Round Valley Middle School in Eagar. For those wanting the more comfortable confines of a motel room, make your reservations at one those listed below, we will deliver luggage there by 2 PM.

Luggage Pickup will start at 8:00 AM on Sunday for the return trip.

The Start & Route. This year we will again start and finish at Hon-Dah. Registration on Saturday is 7:00am till 8:30. No mass start. You will ride North on Highway 260 through Pinetop/Lakeside to Show Low. In Show Low turn East onto Highway 60 then to the sag stop at Midway Station convenience store in Vernon, about 34 scenic miles, (stop in and say hi to the gang, maybe buy a cold soda or ice cream). If you are a casual rider, you might wish to get an early start to avoid missing the SAG stop, which will close at 11:30am. From there it's down to Springerville/Eagar for 63 miles for day one.

!!!Again This Year!!! For those hardy enough, we are planning an Optional Loop of 40 miles. Yes, that's right, you will have the option of doing a Full Century or the traditional Metric Century on day one.

Day two, start 8:00 AM. The return SAG stop will be set up at 8:30am near the Sunrise Ski Resort. From there it's mostly down hill back to the start for the day's total of about 38 miles.

This truly is a great ride, one you shouldn't miss.
