For the third year in a row, Trinity Charities will invite bicycle enthusiasts of all skill levels to participate in its 12 mile AIDS Ride along Legacy Trail in April.
The annual benefit raises money for Trinity Charities, which provides a number of services to the area's needy, hungry and HIV communities.
The Legacy Trail is more than 12 miles in length and runs from just south of the City of Sarasota to Venice, following the former CSX railroad corridor.
Organizers say the total length of the ride is 25 miles round trip. However, beginners are encouraged to utilize any of the 15 rest areas along the trail and it is not required that the entire 25 miles be completed.
The ride is described as a â┚¬Å”bicycle fun rideâ┚¬Â and is not a race. Those interested in participating in the Saturday, April 28 ride can visit TrinityCharities.org to sign up. For more information, call 941-355-0847.
