CONQUER THE COAST
P R E S E NTED BY H- E- B | SEPT E MBE R 14, 2 01 9 | CORP U S CHRIST I, TX
Conquer the Coast presented by H-E-B, South Texas’ premier cycling event, returns for its 16th year on Saturday, September
14, 2019. All three rides will start and finish at Bayfront Park in Corpus Christi. The 66-mile ride leads cyclists over the
Harbor Bridge - 138 feet high overlooking the Port of Corpus Christi - to Portland, through Ingleside, Aransas Pass and to
Port Aransas, including time on the Port Aransas Ferry where riders may have a chance encounter with a dolphin or two.
The route continues through Upper Padre Island – including the “Toughest 18 Miles in Texas” - and then through Naval Air
Station Corpus Christi on the way to breathtaking views of Ocean Drive and Corpus Christi Bay and back through downtown
Corpus Christi. The 10-mile cruise and 21-mile ride are just as captivating and rewarding with cyclists riding down Shoreline
Drive down to Ocean Drive towards the campus of Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, and then back to downtown Corpus
Christi.
Proceeds generated by the 16th annual Conquer the Coast benefit the United Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce
Foundation, which helps develop leaders and entrepreneurs in Corpus Christi, the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islander Athletic
Fund, and various cycling organizations throughout the Coastal Bend including Bikes for Kids and BikeTexas.
Projected attendance: 2,000+ cyclists and their families
Audience: Conquer the Coast attracts novice and experienced cyclists from across the country
COMMUNITY SPONSOR $5,000
