Dean's Ride |
Saturday 23 March 2024 |
The 2024 Dean’s Ride will be held at Keel Farms, Plant City, FL.
The routes will be traversing quieter country roads North of Plant City.
Riders will be able to enjoy the scenic Plant City countryside and smell the sweet scent of the strawberry fields, along with a few farm animals and experience Keel Farms.
The ride will take you along the beautiful Lake Thonotosassa and several family estates. The Florida West Coast Chapter of the US Spyder Ryders, along with other motorcyclists will once again provide ride support.
Pre-ride snacks and refreshments will be available. Post-ride lunch, music, craft beer and Keel Farms cider will be available for your enjoyment.
Shirt type will be a short sleeve style available in both men and women sizes.
The start/finish of this event will be at Keel Farms, located at 5202 Thonotosassa Rd in Plant City.
Keel Farms is an iconic Plant City establishment known for its farming activities along with restaurant and fine beverage selections.
We look forward to you joining us at the farm and raising money for cancer survivors.

Weather Cancellation Policies
This is a Rain or Shine event. No refunds or transfers.
The safety of our participants and volunteers is our most important concern and if any of the threatening weather conditions are present the day of the event (tornado warning, tornado watch, thunderstorm, heavy rain or a hurricane decides to visit), the event may be delayed or canceled.
When weather conditions or other physical conditions present a danger to participants, such conditions fall under the label “acts of mother nature,” it will not result in refunding of any event entry fees or future event credits, since funds were already spent in preparation for your event day.
