WE ARE BACK!! Actually, we never left, LOL. However, we are back to the regular format that we had before the Covid Pandemic. The MGR will be a one day event with on-route munchies, live music and free draw prizes. Read on...
Come for a scenic, fun, non-competitive bicycle ride that is also a fundraiser for The Underground Gym. Ride through country roads starting and ending at the Neebing Roadhouse at the corner of Hwy 61 and 20th Side Road. The bike routes will be primarily on back roads with 4 different routes, a short, medium, long and extra long route. The distances are approximately: 10, 20, 50, and 100 km.
DETAILS OF THE RIDE
WHAT: The Mini GO Ride (MGR) is a fun, non competitive, fund-raising bike tour of approximately 10, 20, 50, or 100km on the back-country roads of Thunder Bay and Oliver-Paipoonge Township. After the ride, you are welcome inside the Neebing Roadhouse and visit with others while ordering from their menu, listening to live music, and winning draw prizes.
WHEN: Saturday May 27. There are various start times depending on your distance. 10 and 20 km starts at 11:00am; 50km starts at 10:00am; 100km start at 9:00am
WHERE/ROUTES: Meet at the Neebing Roadhouse Parking lot. All the routes start by heading north on the 20th Side Road. All routes are marked with temporary white paint showing arrows at each turn. The last arrow will be marked with a number which indicates the distance to the next turn. Each arrow has a signature marking of an upsidedown letter “u” at the bottom of the arrow.

Possible FAQ’s
Q - PRICING
Why are the ticket prices not even numbers like $25.00 or $10.00. Instead I see $27.96 and $11.98?
A - We are trying to be transparent with the people who register. Our actual prices are indeed numbers like $25.00 and $10.00. However, Eventbrite our website hosts, charge a fee for every purchase made on their site. We don’t want to “surprise” you at the end of your purchase with another added cost. We tell you before that.
Q – FILLING OUT DATA
Why are you asking us to pay before entering our data?
A – That is how Eventbrite is set up, we don’t have control over that. However, we trust that the wisdom of Eventbrite’s knowledge of setting up events is more vast than our wisdom, so it must be for the greater good.
Q – GROUP PARTICIPATION CHALLENGE
Where do we enter our group name? What if we did not enter a group name when registering, then want enter in that team at a later date? Do we have to enter a group name? What if we want to change to a different group (because they might be more fun, LOL)?
A – You will be prompted to optionally enter your group after you have paid entered all your registration information. If you did not enter a group name, you may contact us to enter it for you behind the scenes. You are not obliged to enter a group name. If you want to change your group name, contact us and we’ll make that change for
