Tuesday Evening Ride from Epic Cycles

Tuesday Evening Rides from Epic Cycles Hendersonville - all summer!

Starting Tuesday, April 30th, every Tuesday evening until the end of August, Epic Cycles and BRBC will be hosting an evening ride.  Meet at 5:30pm at Epic Cycles – ride starts at 6pm.  These rides are open to anyone.  Details will be posted on the event calendar.  We’ll have two ride options:

  • Option one will be a fun, social ride for riders looking for a new group to ride with, as well as some support on navigating the roads in Hendersonville. This ride is for new riders, riders with a new bike, or longtime riders looking for a relaxing fun ride in the evenings. This fun, social route will be an out and back route with a few hills as possible in Hendersonville.  Riders can ride as far as their pace will allow them to complete the ride before sunset.  At least one ride leader will ride as sweep to ensure no one is stranded on the route. The total distance on the route is almost 19 miles but you can easily start out with a shorter distance and work your way up each week. We have all summer!

 

  • The second ride option is for more experienced riders. This ride is a 20.3 mile loop with 1670 ft elevation - ride out Kanuga Lake Rd to Evans Rd and back in Hebron Rd.  This ride will not have a designated ride leader, but these roads are likely to be familiar to most of you.  And after a few weeks, the route will be familiar to everyone!
