A great cause for Sons looking for a ride. The Ride for Dad on June 19th is a great ride and a great way to support prostate casncer research. We need to be at the Max Bell arena (1001 Barlow Trail Southeast) at about 10:00 a.m, so we could leave Central at about 8:00 a.m. to get there in time. The parade leaves the Max at about 10:30 and will take about 5 hrs to complete the poker rally. There's a $25.00 registration fee for the rally as I understand it.

Here is the route information from the organizers:

Parade Route:

Escorted by Calgary Police Service
Departing Max Bell Arena to Mark's Work Wearhouse (Westhills)
(Specific route and map will be posted shortly)

Poker Route:

1st Card - Marks (Westhills)
2nd Card - Marks (Cochrane)
3rd Card - Bragg Creek
4th Card - Okotoks
5th Card - Max Bell Arena
I would estimate the route Poker Route to be less than 200km round trip. Lunch will be served at the Okotoks stop. I would guess that return time will be approximately between 14h00-15h00, with all hands to be in by no later than 16h00.
