The Fifth Annual Rupert Century Bike Ride will be held on Saturday, May 15th on the Rupert Square (the South East corner).  Check in time is from 8:00 to 8:45 a.m. with the ride starting  at 9:00 a.m. 

The scenic course is a loop of 33 miles starting from the Rupert Square.  The route takes you through country roads to Walcott State Park where you will loop the main park then return to Rupert.  Bikers can plan to do one, two or all three loops of the course.  There will be two food and drink stations on the course. 

The ride is donation only and cyclists from the Mini-Cassia area who are planning the event will donate all proceeds to Rock and Traci Temple to help defray medical expenses.  Traci has been diagnosed with a very rare form of stage 4 pancreatic/liver cancer. 

There will also be a benefit Barbecue and music from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. on the Rupert Square with food and drink available for purchase.  All donations from the bike ride and barbecue will go to help Rock and Traci Temple with medical needs.

Donations can also be given at any D. L. Evans Bank  with checks payable to the Traci Temple Fund.
