making the world a better place, one event at a time.
Conquer the Coast™ features a 65 Mile Ride which
encompasses the Corpus Christi Bay including: a
beautiful sunrise climb over the Harbor Bridge, a
route through the coastal communities and fishing
villages of Portland, Ingleside, Aransas Pass, and
Port Aransas, a ferry ride across the intercoastal
canal, a scenic cruise down Padre Island crossing
over the JFK Causeway, a tour through Naval Air
Station-Corpus Christi and a bike friendly path down
Ocean Drive. Proceeds from the event benefit the
Tarpon Foundation, which provides scholarships for
the TAMU-CC Islander Athletics program, and the
Chamber Foundation (Leadership Corpus Christi).
As the Fifth Annual Conquer the Coast™
approaches, the Corpus Christi Chamber of
Commerce has focused on strengthening the event
to attract more cyclists from around the state, the
country, and from Mexico. The event attracts over
2000 cyclists and spectators, and added a new
element in 2007 known as the CTC CRITERIUM.
This event draws a substantial audience comprised
of sponsors and area citizens as extreme cyclists hit
high speeds of 30-40 MPH through a designated
route in the downtown and uptown area of Corpus
Christi, Texas.
