SUMMARY:2025 Conquer The Coast presented by H-E-B
DESCRIPTION:The United Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce Foundation invites you to experience the adventure of riding your bicycle around Corpus Christi Bay's shoreline by participating in the Annual Conquer the Coast presented by H-E-B bike ride. It has gained the reputation of being one of the most unique rides in Texas and continues to grow annually.\n\n\n\n*We anticipated 2024 was the last year we rode over the old Harbor Bridge\, and with that\, comes a slightly different route for the 66 mile riders between the start/finish line and North Beach near the Texas State Aquarium & the USS Lexington. Once we have a confirmed route (approved by TXDoT\, the City of Corpus Christi\, and Traffic Control) we will update accordingly. \n\n\n\nRide registration here: conquer.bike/kjgpr88t\n\n\nSponsorship Opportunities: \n\n21 mile Sponsor: $15\,000\n\n(1 of 1 available) \n\n Official naming rights for the 21-mile ride\n\n Prominent 10x10 tent with table & chairs \n\n Branding on pre-event marketing (Flyer\, Registration page\, & E-blasts)\n\n Branding on Conquer the Coast Start/Finish signage\n\n Logo Visibility on Official Conquer the Coast jersey\n\n Company logo included on event t-shirt\n\n Listing on Conquer the Coast press releases\n\n Sampling opportunities at venue and in goody bags\n\n 20 ride registrations (any distance)\n\n\n\n\n\nEntertainment Presenting Sponsor: $3\,000\n\nAvailable for in-kind trade. \n\n(1 of 1 available)\n\n Exclusive 'Presented by:' status of the Entertainment at the main stage\n\n 10x10 tent with table & chairs \n\n Sponsor Banner to be placed on stage \n\n Logo Recognition on event registration\, marketing\, signage\, Rider T-Shirt & bag\n\n Verbal Recognition from stage\n\n 5 ride registrations (any distance)\n\n\n\n\n\nChill Out Zone Sponsor: $5\,000\n\n(1 of 1 available)\n\n Exclusive 'Presented by:' status of the Chill Zone tent \n\n Exclusive vendor booth located inside tent\n\n Sponsor Banner to be placed on on/near tent\n\n Logo Recognition on event registration\, marketing\, signage\, Rider T-Shirt & bag\n\n Verbal Recognition from stage\n\n Sampling opportunities at venue and in goody bags\n\n 5 ride registrations (any distance)\n\n \n\n\n\nCap Sponsor: $3\,000\n\n(1 of 1 available)\n\n Company name included on CTC hat\n\n 10x10 tent with table and chairs\n\n Logo Recognition on event registration\, marketing\, signage\, Rider T-Shirt & bag\n\n Verbal Recognition from stage\n\n Sampling opportunities at venue and in goody bags\n\n 5 ride registrations (any distance)\n\n\n\n\n\nBag Sponsor: $3\,000\n\n(1 of 1 available)\n\n Company logo placed on participant swag bags\n\n Logo Recognition on event registration page\n\n Company logo included on event t-shirt\n\n Verbal Recognition from stage\n\n Sampling opportunities at venue and in goody bags\n\n 4 ride registrations (any distance)\n\n\n\n\n\nWater Stop Sponsor: $1\,500\n\n(7 of 8 available)\n\n Official branding rights for one (1) Water Station along route.

The H-E-B 66-mile ride begins at 7:30a.m. in the heart of Corpus Christi's Sports\, Entertainment and Arts District (N. Bayfront Park\, Corpus Christi\, TX 78401). See some of the region's most iconic views\, an award-winning art museum and the awe-inspiring water gardens. Your trek up the bridge gives you a bird's eye view of the Corpus Christi Ship Channel and the nation's 5th largest port to your left. One your right\, you'll see a National Landmark\, the USS Lexington and the Texas State Aquarium. All with the expansive Corpus Christi Bay\, as the backdrop\, where you survey the very coast you set out to conquer.\n\nThe adventure has only begun as you begin to circumnavigate the highways clockwise through all the picturesque towns that line the shores of Corpus Christi Bay. Portland\, Aransas Pass\, Ingleside and Port Aransas all offer their own unique flair to the Coastal Bend and promise spectacular views along the way. The Port Aransas Ferry connects you to Mustang & Padre Island where the true test begins. Some call it the "Toughest 18 Miles in Texas" as this stretch of Mustang Island is what it's all about. It's what separates the joy riders from the cyclists. This ride offers the unique opportunity to ride through the Naval Air Station Corpus Christi. A quick ride past the island campus of Texas A&M Corpus Christi and you hit Ocean Drive: easily one of the most scenic drives in all of Texas.\n\nIf the H-E-B 66-mile ride is not for you\, Conquer the Coast also offers a 21-mile ride\, as well as the Flint Hills Resources 10-mile 'Family Ride'.\n\n\n\n**We anticipated 2024 was the last year we rode over the old Harbor Bridge\, and expect 2025 will include a ride over the NEW HARBOR BRIDGE. Once we have a confirmed route (approved by TXDoT\, the City of Corpus Christi\, and Traffic Control) we will update accordingly.
