Memorial Ride for Roger Heard

  • Ray D. Corbett Junior High School 12000 Ray Corbett Dr Schertz, TX USA (map)

Please join several cycling teams and clubs on this ride for a member of the San Antonio cycling community, Roger Heard. The Air Force Cycling Team had this to say about Roger:

Everyone who knew Roger has beautiful memories of him. On team rides, he was the one of the strongest riders, but he always floated to the back to ride with the slowest riders for a while, then would book to the front to see if anyone needed help along the way. He would do this back and forth the entire ride, helping folks, and putting in lots of extra miles.

Just a couple weeks before RAGBRAI, the Texas team was doing a 77-mile training ride. One of our members was having a hard time, and Roger stayed with him until the member was able to safely get a ride home. Then Roger steamed ahead to join the rest of the team. This was typical Roger.

The ride starts at Corbett Junior High School in Schertz. Wheels down at 8:30 AM.

The route is a 42 miler on some familiar roads:
