| Good morning! We’re almost there—the 2nd Annual Legacy 100 Ride is this Saturday. You’ll join more than 200 riders for a scenic countryside route, tours of beautiful historic churches, a finisher medal, and a locally prepared meal.

Start/Finish: Location: St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, 7026 FM 957, Schulenburg, TX 78956Traffic flow: Cars/trucks use the western gravel driveway. Bicycles use the eastern paved driveway.

Overflow parking is available in the grassy area at the back, off the bike driveway. Please park neatly and close together so there’s room for everyone.
