The La Grange Area Chamber of Commerce invites you to stop by for visitor information 24 hours, 7 days a week at our outdoor, touch-screen kiosk located at 171 South Main in La Grange.  Visitors will find information on tourist attractions such as The Jersey Barnyard, Monument Hill and the Kreische Brewery, the Texas Czech Heritage and Cultural Center, the newly renovated historic Fayette County Courthouse, the Fayette Old Jail Museum, the Faison Home and the Fayette County Museum and Library.  La Grange is an experience you won’t want to miss…Czech us out, you will be glad you did.

Get Your Guts in Gear in Texas! 

Experience the winding back roads of Central Texas as never before from March 23-25, 2007!  Beginning in historic LaGrange and ending near Austin, the route will wind through a variety of landscapes including the Lost Pines, farm and ranchland, the Guadalupe River, and the Hill Country during wildflower season. 

MORE THAN A RIDE, Get Your Guts in Gear (“GYGIG”) strives to provide an empowering experience of accomplishing a physical challenge within a caring Ride Community.  We’re ready to support you 100%! 

GYGIG is an independent charity that is raising awareness and funds for the fight against Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and for the needs of people living with ostomies.  GYGIG is now entering its fourth year of working with like-minded charities for this cause. 

In addition to the Texas Ride, GYGIG also produces rides in New York’s Hudson River Valley (June) and the Pacific Northwest (August).

 Ride, Crew, or Volunteer!

There is an $85 registration fee for riders and crew, and riders must raise at least $1,900 to participate.  All participants must be at least 18 to ride or crew; exceptions may be made for those ages 16-18 if accompanied by a parent or guardian.  GYGIG also needs help from day volunteers.  For more information, please contact GYGIG at 718-875-2123, e-mail us at info@ibdride.org, or visit us on the web at www.ibdride.org.
