| Here is the description of
the ride route and
itinerary for riding for smiles, Minnesota to the west coast ride. This
may change due to weather, road construction, and additional rest days.
It’s to give riders an approximation of where we are so those
riders wishing to join in with us for the ride might be able to make
better plans. Always check the SPOT tracker link to find the exact
location. It is updated every 10 minutes and will be turned on
½ hour before the ride begins and then turned off after we
have stopped at the end of the day. |
