The fourth annual ride is being held in conjunction with Ansonville’s Homecoming Celebration and Ansonville Volunteer Fire Department’s barbecue fundraiser. Registration will begin at 8 a.m. at Ansonville Elementary School, located on U.S. 52 across the highway from the fire department. The entry fee is $25.
Diane McLaughlin, Ansonville town clerk, filling in for Mayor Billy Thompson, will drop the “green flag” at 9 a.m. Riders will follow one of three routes— a 30-, 50- or 70-miler— that offers a challenging but scenic ride through the rolling countryside of Anson County, including the Pee Dee National Wildlife Refuge and the Uwharrie foothills.
The Discover Anson Bike Ride is co-sponsored by the Anson County Chamber of Commerce and the Anson County Tourism Development Authority; and is overseen by the chamber’s marketing and bike ride committees.
