The Mineola Metric 100 Bicycle Ride

Begin at Mineola’s Nature Preserve and bicycle East Texas’ beautiful, gently rolling hills on farm roads and quaint country lanes through woodlands, past fields of wildflowers, farms, ranches and vineyards in The Mineola Wine Country. Choose rides from 100 Kilometer, 51mi, 41mi, 26mi, or 17mi including such sections as Old Mineola Road, Old Sabine River Bottom Run, Wanderwood Lane, Roller Coaster Alley and then finish through Grand Oaks Tree Tunnel Lane ending at the Nature Preserve.

Just 90 miles from Dallas or Shreveport — just behind the Pine Curtain — the MineolaMetric100 is East Texas’ newest and best little bicycle ride.

Ride with us once and you’ll return again and again.
