Drop Bags: Write your name clearly on your bag and place any post-ride clothes or gear inside. Volunteers will transport it to the official Finish Line in downtown Keo at the Arkansas Pecan Festival.

Finish Line Celebration
The ride officially ends in Keo, right in the heart of the Arkansas Pecan Festival. Secure your bike in the secure bike area, grab a Moody Brews pour, and savor your well-earned slice of pecan pie. Stick around to enjoy the festival’s car show, vendors, entertainment, and holiday cheer.
Important Note: Riders registering the morning of the event are not guaranteed pie after the ride.
