About

Participate in the 35th Annual Jalapeno 100 Bike Ride in honor of Henry Roberts.

We invite you to join us for the 35th Annual Jalapeno 100 Bike Ride. We are excited to reintroduce the century ride, which will start in Harlingen and take you north to Raymondville, then east to Port Mansfield. You'll return along scenic country roads leading back to Harlingen. Not inclined to ride for 100 Miles? No worries, you can choose to ride a 12, 25, 50 or 62.5 Mile Route.

Prepare to face the challenges of the South Texas winds and share you stories afterward!

 

Just keep in mind, it's not a race; it's a delightful bicycle tour of the Rio Grande Valley, where you can enjoy some of the finest rest stops in Texas along the way.

 

Make it a weekend adventure by participating in the Jalapeno 100, March 7 (Saturday) and add on the Gravelpeno, March 8 (Sunday).  *Must add on Gravelpeno by March 1 to secure a discounted rate.  You can sign up for Gravelpeno separately after that date at regular rate.

You will receive two (2) medals. Deadline to guarantee your t-shirt and medal is February 16.
