Your 2024 Rider Guide is Here!

Today is a day that event orgnizers love/fear: the first day they get a 10-day forecast! Right now, (no jinx), it is looking (no jinx) like it'll be in the 70s for all four starts, partly cloudy (which is a big help), and barely getting into the 90s (no jinx). Th winds look mild, and, when we last checked, the routes are still pretty flat! Granted, we're 10 days out, and forecasting more than 10 minutes out an be challenging, so keep those fingers crossed, knock wood, or whatever you think might work for you. Like Michael Scott says, we're not superstitious, but we are a little stitioius...

Big Pink Bus: Life-Saving Mission
Texas Mamma Jamma Ride participants are raising funds to support the life-saving mission of Lone Star Circle of Care’s Big Pink Bus mobile mammography service. The Big Pink Bus addresses the critical need for affordable and accessible mammograms among underserved and uninsured Central Texas women. Early detection saves lives! The Big Pink Bus helps identify breast cancer earlier by providing the latest screening technology to our neighbors who need it most.

The Big Pink Bus will be at the Mamma Jamma start/finish, making the perfect background for your Ride Day photo!
