August 29th - Spokes Ride
Description
Rediscover the Freedom of Two Wheels
Continue the America250 celebration and the 250 Mile Challenge with a ride dedicated to one of life's simplest joys: riding a bicycle.
Long before smartphones, streaming services, and busy schedules, many of us discovered freedom from the seat of a bicycle. It was our first taste of independence. We rode to friends' houses, explored our neighborhoods, and experienced the world beyond our front doors. For many Americans, a bicycle represented freedom, adventure, and possibility.
The America250 Spokes Ride celebrates those memories while embracing the joy of e-bikes and the freedom they bring today.
