CANALWAY BICYCLE POKER RUN

On Sunday, May 16th, Massillon Area Greenways Inc. (MAGI), Stark County Bicycle Club, and Ernie’s Bicycle Shops will be sponsoring the Canalway Bicycle Poker Run on the Towpath Trail. Participants may register at the Lake Avenue Trailhead at the corner of Lake Avenue and Rt. 21 in Massillon anytime between 9am and 1pm. Cost is $5.00 per poker hand. Riding their choice of 15 or 27 miles on the trail, cyclists will stop at five checkpoints along the way, picking a playing card at each stop. When they arrive back where they started, they will play their hand against other riders. Prizes will be awarded to the top ten hands. Riders do not have to be present to win. Additional prizes will be given to anyone who pulls a joker from the deck. Riders should plan to finish the ride by 4pm. All ages are welcome. The event will be held rain or shine! For more info contact Ernie’s Bicycle Shop at 1-800-291-0099 or www.erniesbikeshop.com. All proceeds will benefit trail projects.
