Let’s ride

A Month of Community Rides

This month-long celebration will promote all known community cycling amenities and routes in four different local riding formats: road, mountain, gravel, and stationary, which include parks, pump tracks, indoor cycling, and other family-friendly community rides.

Kick-Off Rides

One kick-off. Multiple options:

“The Pink Ride” spin class at Conway Regional Fitness Center–because “strong looks good on you.” Wear your pink during this 50-minute high-energy class! Register here!

Tucker Creek Trail Ride for families and all ages or skill levels. This ride will stay on the Tucker Creek Trail. Riders can stick with the group, stay and play on a feature, or circle back at your convenience.

Either a 15 or 30 mile group road ride leaving from and returning to the fitness center.

All rides will conclude with a joint celebration, snacks, and giveaways.

MTB Ride

Sunday, Oct. 18 at 3 p.m. | Meadows Tech Park Trail, Ledgelawn Drive

The Meadows Tech Park Trail is a perfect introduction to mountain biking. This is a 3+ mile, “green” level beginner trail. If you’re a more experienced MTB’er, feel free to try to take a KOM on Strava.

Experienced trail riders will be on hand to provide tips or directions. We’ll even have a Conway Regional Health System “boo-boo station” on site for any unfortunate spills. Refreshments, giveaways, and a fall ride with the central Arkansas MTB community.

There will also be a cycling class on Oct. 18 at the Conway Regional Health & Fitness Center. Spaces are limited! Register here!

Taco Ride

Wednesday, Oct. 28 at 5:3o p.m. | Caldwell Toyota, 1355 Exchange Drive

One of the most popular Biketoberfest events, the Taco Ride features two creative ways to participate.

An outdoor stationary (spin) sunset ride will take place at Caldwell Toyota using the Conway Fitness Center spin bikes. Register here!

The group road ride is a 5 mile “circuit” style ride. Riders can race to ride as many (or as few) laps as they choose in an hour before returning to Caldwell Toyota.

Both rides will conclude with well-earned tacos and prizes.

Glow Ride

Riders will have a chance to ride in the Tech Park woods after dark for a spooky and fun “Glow Ride.” Glow accessories will be on-site but riders should bring a bike light. Get your Halloween treats after the ride (or even in between laps).
