THE GOODS:  - Custom Next Level event shirts to the first 250 riders, Florida Highway Patrol police escorts, neutral support trailing each group, stocked rest stops, custom event numbers, insured event and a post event party by the Thriller Griller of the Veterans Trust. who will produce the best burger (including veggie) you have ever tasted. The Thriller Griller will also bring their retired NASCAR simulator experience for you to use, table games and music.  You must be at least 18 years of age or older to participate in this event. 

EARLY FEES: $55 for the 100K group (60mi), $45 for 55K group (35mi) - online registration closes on Sunday, March 5, 2023, at 6am.  Regular Fee increases by $10 on Febraury 27, 2023.  Late fee (event day) registration please add $10.  There are no refunds for this event.

Burger 'A' Group (100K / 60 miles) - The ride will begin at a neutral pace until as we head South on US and eventually head East towards AIA  where the pace will pickup and controlled at a steady (up to 27 mph) paced by select riders and escorted by the Florida Highway Patrol. There will be a short rest stop, photos at the halfway mark (30 miles) at the office of Bill Bone in downtown West Palm Beach and the food will be amazing. We will have water, Coca-Cola, and snacks.  Restrooms will be made available. Please bring plenty of fluids for the return ride. On the return, the pace will resume as soon as the group is on A1A.. After Linton Blvd (3 miles to ride to Spanish), Florida Highway Patrol will clear the road so that the group can sprint at the proverbial imaginary finish line :).   Map - Strava Route

Burger 'B' Group (55K /35 miles) - The ride will begin at controlled pace along A1A  at a speed not to exceed 21 mph. The ride is an out and back ride so any rider that is dropped off the back can wait for the group to return.  There is a rest stop halfway at Lake Worth Beach. Riders will head North after a short break and group photos.  Map - Strava Route
