BikeFest Annual Charity Ride

Every year we host BikeFest, a local charity ride to
support cycling initiatives in the Triangle. Ride options
range from 35, 45, 62, and 100 miles. All paces are
welcome and all rest stops feature homemade goodies.

We encourage bike riding in our community, and
participate in local initiatives to improve cycling options.
From local events to policy work, our activism helps make
cycling safer and more accessible.
