FINAL REGISTRATION IS AUGUST 6th for HFHW Muddy Waters Community Cycle!

Habitat for Humanity along with the Muddy Waters committee continue to create the most important annual celebration of cycling in Manitoba. In addition to the historic “century ride” the options of three shorter rides, 100 km, 60 km, as well as an Urban Ride of 25 km-- aimed at both families and individuals-- continue to attract more cyclists. In 2009, the Muddy Waters cycling event drew over 500 participants, more than doubling last year’s total! Help us reach our goal of having 1,000 participants in 2010!
