Cycle Fandango, Broken Arrow, OK

October 16-17, 2010

Me and my husband have ridden most of the Dallas-Fort Worth rides and the Fandango ride is absolutely the best. LOTS of sag support, lots of great food and even accomodated vegetarians. Road conditions are great some chipseal but not too bad, better than most DFW rides. Great rest stops, great challenging hills, beautiful scenary and the highlight is going over a dam which has a breath taking view. The camp ground was beautiful and the band was great. The Fandango support staff were very responsive even with all my questions prior to the ride. Very well organized ride! Good route markings. This is a ride I will definitely do next year. You get your monies worth and more at this ride!

October 17-18, 2009

This ride took place on Oct. 17-18 2009. The ride was about 75 miles each day( approx 2700 ft of easy climbing). This was a well supported ride with enthusiastic volunteers . The ride included dinner on Saturday night and breakfast on Sunday morning. The live band on Saturday night did a great job. The over night stay at Greenleaf State Park was well chosen based on the facilities which included warm showers ,plenty of bathrooms , lots of grass for camping and picaresque views.Seriously , it was so beautiful it looked like a painting. The web address for this ride is www.cyclefandango.com. The roads for the majority of the ride were good . There was a highway intersection or two that needs to have law enforcement presence next year, but this was the first year and I’m sure these type items will be addressed next year.
This was a better ride than I expected, knowing that it was a first year event. I was told that they had about 115 riders and I bet they get more in 2010. I know I’ll be back along with several other riders that will enjoy this ride.
