CANDISC will cycle 400 miles of hills, dales, highways and scenic roads in North Dakota. You will taste North Dakotan hospitality first hand as communities open their towns to you. In its 20th anniversary, CANDISC is a bicycle ride – not a race. This year’s “Enchanted Anniversary Tour” 2012 will cycle the amazing “Enchanted Highway” featuring the world’s largest metal sculptures, whose creator was named a Bush Artist Fellow. Be sure to visit the Knife River Villages National Historic Site on the Lewis and Clark Trail, home of the famous Corps of Discovery guide Sakakawea. Also stop to visit New Salem Sue, the World’s Largest Holstein Milk Cow! Take time on the tour for Assumption Abbey, featuring early 1900’s St. Mary Catholic Church patterned after Bavarian Romanesque architecture with majestic twin towers, vaulted ceilings, stained glass windows, and wonderful original paintings. The ride begins at Fort Stevenson State Park in Garrison, ND, a community of 1,400 located just north of beautiful Lake Sakakawea, the largest Army Corps reservoir in the USA. Riders travel a circular route then head back to the park at the end of the seven day tour. Planning for the ride... CANDISC is a ride not a race. You will get the most out of it if you are in good shape. The Route is 400 miles with daily mileage ranging from 25 to 82 with a century option available to test your stamina.
