Routes range from a 10-mile Fun Loop to a 63-mile Main Loop. Ride all of the loops for a total of 110 miles. Proceeds benefit Bluffton Pathways Project
The seventh annual Ride to Remember returns after a one-year in-person absence on Saturday, July 10. The ride is sponored by the Bluffton Lions Club Foundation.
The planning committee made the decision that this event can be safely held with certain COVID-19 precautions. And for riders who are still cautious about a group event, an on-your-own virtual event, similar to last year, will also be an option.

By Mike Minnig Bluffton HS principal This column is from the spring Bluffton school newsletter.
In this month of May, I urge parents to help keep their sons and daughters focused on finishing the year strong.
Many of our students are involved in extra-curriculars and, at this time of the year, can see the days of summer ahead testing their time-management skills. Setting aside time to study, do homework, complete final projects, and prepare for final exams helps ensure a successful end to the year.
