This Sunday, April 26th should be dedicated to the P.E.A.C.E race. P.E.A.C.E (Protection, Education, Animals, Culture, and Environment) is a non profit organization in Banderas Bay that endeavors to offer free community service programs and English classes for children and adults. This event is less of a competition and more of a fun ride through the streets of Puerto Vallarta. There are three different levels for participants; beginners, intermediate and advanced. Participants will have to bring mountain bikes with sturdy tires as they will have to drive through a lot of dirt and gravel. The race will begin from La Desembocada and end there as well. The town lies 15 kilometers away from Puerto Vallarta on Las Palmas highway. You can walk in and register for the race at 8:00 am. You will have to give a picture to enter the race. Other than that you can purchase a raffle ticker for a bike gear for $50 pesos only. And Pedal for PEACE T-shirt costs only $200 pesos. You will be handed a map that will indicate the route very clearly for you. Other than that, the paths too will be marked, so you need not worry about losing your path.
