Nancy’s Ride is a welcoming, inclusive ride for all cyclists with the goal of sharing Freewheelin’s love of supporting youth cycling. This year the distance rides will consist of three circuits of 15, 20 and 30 miles that will start and return to Tabernacle Presbyterian Church where you can take a break, use the facilities, and have a snack.
Participants will be able to start the ride from 8 AM to 1 PM to enhance distancing on the route and throughout the event.
To accommodate distancing on the course, select a ride time and choose from a self-paced ride or ride leader led family-oriented Destination Ride (10K, or 6.2 miles) that will follow the planned Neighbor Ways routes that the city will be building soon. Stops will include one Great Place and other unique attractions. Riders 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult 18 or over. Training wheels are not allowed.
After the ride, join enjoy a boxed lunch (included for registered participants). Scholarships are available by contacting info@freewheelinbikes.org.
We have found ways to offer this fun Labor Day event in a safe, responsible manner for all participants. We have also made sure that anyone who volunteers for our event will enjoy the same precautions. Sign up here.
We have many volunteer opportunities
Volunteer shifts are 2-3 hours, so there will be plenty of time for you to ride one (or maybe more) of the three routes we have created. For your services, you will receive our SWAG bag that will include a Freewheelin' mask and a free meal.
