2009 RoughRide Benefits Fauquier Free Clinic

Hop on your bicycle and join the 13th annual Rappahannock RoughRide on September 19, 2009, rain or shine, in Washington, Va. Build muscles and funds for the Fauquier County Free Clinic. NOVEC is co-sponsoring this self-paced, multi-level cycling challenge for the recreational or serious cyclist.

Three courses range from 12 to more than 50 miles over paved roads or mixed terrain. Early registrants will receive a RoughRide tee shirt. Every rider has an equal chance to win a donated prize.

All riders must wear helmets and sign a release. Riders under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

The Rappahannock RoughRide helps fund the Fauquier Free Clinic’s two medical sites, which serve a growing number of uninsured individuals and families who live in the area. Many patients earn a little too much money to qualify for federal assistance. Volunteer doctors, dentists, nurses, and administrators have treated more than 25,000 patients since the clinic opened its doors in 1993.
