One week ago today, we were kicking off the 2026 Cycle NC Mountain Ride! What an incredible weekend it turned out to be. More than 350 riders from 23 different states joined us to experience some of the very best cycling Western North Carolina has to offer.
From unforgettable miles on the Blue Ridge Parkway and the leg-burning climb to Jump Off Rock, to rolling along the Brevard Greenway and the Ecusta Trail, every day delivered incredible scenery and unforgettable riding. We even kicked off the weekend with a Friday warm-up ride that doubled as a brewery tour, giving riders the perfect excuse to spin through town and enjoy stops at several fantastic local breweries. 🍻
To everyone who rode with us, volunteered, and hosted us, thank you for making this year's Mountain Ride one to remember. We can't wait to do it all again next year!
