Seasonal Events - serenity run

INTERNATIONAL SERENITY RUN The International Serenity Run (ISR) was established in 1985 to further the principles, ideals and traditions of 12-step recovery amongst clean and sober motorcycle riders. The Run provides a place where all clean and sober riders can gather annually in friendship and in the spirit of fellowship to share their new lives in recovery. Since 1986, Cedaredge has welcomed the ISR with open arms. Connie’s Restaurant stays open for three days straight, the First Assembly of God Church has a BBQ dinner for us, and the Veterans of Foreign Wars make sure that they have breakfast on Friday and Saturday mornings. Be sure not to miss the bike parade! The parade is a magical thing; riders forming a loud, gleaming chrome line for miles as they weave through the town, all the while performing a delicate single lane balancing act as they toss candy and beads to the local kids, and quite a few adults! Many residents also come out and watch the antics of the riders during the motorcycle games. Talk about fun! There is a how-slow-can-you-go race, the front-tire-push barrel roll, as well as several games that require an adept and daring passenger. Aspen Trails is the place to play & stay! In conjunction with the bike games, we also have a kid’s track and field day. We invite any and all children under the age of 12 to participate. The ISR always falls in the first part of August. You can stop by the Aspen Trails registration tent anytime for an itinerary and a visit. The ISR will always be open to anyone in the community, and the registration fee is waived for community members! The residents of Cedaredge have continually been very gracious and welcoming; ISR would love to return the gesture by inviting the community out for all three days, and joining them as they rejoice in life, and trudge the road to a happy destiny.
