In April 2011, a series of devastating tornadoes ripped through Alabama claiming hundreds of lives and destroying countless homes. As a native Alabamian, Bo Jackson wanted to help the recovery process and contribute to the construction of shelters for future natural disasters through Bo Bikes Bama.
The ninth annual Bo Bikes Bama bike ride will start and finish at Auburn Arena for participants who want to ride 60 miles or 20 miles. Both routes will take riders through the campus of Auburn University. The 60-mile route will pass through Tuskegee and neighboring Macon County.

Registration and fundraising will open to the public beginning Jan. 15 on <a href='http://bobikesbama.com/'>bobikesbama.com</a>. Early bird rates are $45 for the 20-mile ride and $65 for the 60-mile ride, regular rates (from April 3-19) are $50 and $70, and day-of rates will be $60 and $100. Registration includes a rider number, Nike t-shirt, access to the ride and rest stops, SAG support and post-ride lunch.
