2022 Museum Challenge
Please save these dates (see below). Make all four rides for a special treat. If you can’t make the rides with the group, do the ride on your own or with a smaller group.
To get credit, take a picture of yourself at the location and send to Garrett.
These are four very diverse museums across out state and each promises to be a rewarding adventure.

Mustang Museum, Odenville
Depart HoD at 8:30. This ride will take 2.5 hours allowing for a 30 minute stop. Ride departs form HoD, so plan to have kick stands up at 8:30 to put us at Charlie’s BBQ in Odenville at 11:00. This should also help to beat the heat a little.
