Join hundreds of regional cyclists on Sunday, September 15 as they take off from Old Trail Village in Crozet, Va. During the Challenge, you’ll course through the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. There are 25, 50, 75 and 100-mile routes, and an 8-mile family fun ride. Riders and their families are treated to a finish line pool party including lunch, local wine and beer, and live music. Over the past eight years, the Cycling Challenge has grown into Virginia’s premier fall cycling event. Register today at http://www.bgcchallenge.org.
Kids train throughout the summer to ride on the Challenge team. Proceeds from the ride go to support the Boys & Girls Clubs.
This is an awesome ride, but it’s an even better cause. Funds raised from registrations and donations directly support the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Virginia, which serve over 1,800 youth annually. About a dozen of these young club members are training throughout the summer to ride on the Challenge Team. This ride is often their first step into the sport of cycling and the important life lessons that come with it. For them, the finish line is just the beginning.
