We are reviving an old time favorite - the Fargo Movie Locations ride. The GPS link has been significantly modified to utilize some new roads and trails. We will stop at several iconic locations from the movie where you will hear the story about what happened there. 

This is meant to be a fun, Ride with Friends event so the pace will be moderate and we'll stick together for most of the ride.    

We encourage riders to view the Fargo movie (1996) before the ride so you can appreciate what happened at each location.

France McDermott won an Oscar for her role as the sheriff in this comedy/tragi-drama movie.  If you are pressed for time, check out YouTube for some highlights of the movie, which will include some of the locations we will be visiting.

Getting to the start is a little bit of a challenge since there isn't an official state address for the parking lot.  Basically, from Concord St, just north of I-494, turn east on Villaume, left on Harding, right on Verderosa and follow it around, under the I-494 bridge to the parking lot. 

Feel free to call Rob (612-801-4196) for any questions.  

Electronic Ride Waiver - do this before the ride

We have worked with RUSA on an electronic ride waiver that we are now rolling out for all of our rides. This will replace our paper waivers at the start. We will still bring some as a backup. You can click here to go to the MN Randonneurs SmartWaiver page. Please fill out the form there with all the requested information. Once you click submit, an email with a download link of the electronic waiver will be sent to you, to the Minnesota RBA (Norman Ehrentreich), and to the RUSA insurance account. After that, you will be sent back to a landing page on the mnrando.org site that you can close.
