The Perry Chamber of Commerce’s Bike Ride to Rippey, BRR, held the first Saturday of February for many years, provides fundraising opportunities for Rippey organizations.

The Rippey Lions Club served a lunch at the new Community Center while the T.H.U.G youth group served at the United Methodist Church. The Rippey fire department hosted a beverage tent.

How long until spring?

The ride drawers hundreds of bicyclists who make the 24-mile round trip from Perry to Rippey and back regardless of the weather. This year’s weather was not as cold as some years, but not as warm as others.
