10th Annual Raintree Ride, September 25, 2010
Raintree Ride (f.k.a. Stride & Ride) is a family-friendly event with an activity for all. Bike rides of 6. 30, and 62 miles are offered. All proceeds go toward the development of Raintree Trails, a recreational linear system of trails and greenways in Henry County—the legendary "Raintree County." Rides begin and end in beautiful Westwood Park. The courses (new 2009) were carefully measured and utilize some of the smoother and more scenic routes in Henry County.
