Distance Rides

Choose from 5, 15, 35, or 65 miles! We have an option to fit your activity level.  Remember you should enjoy yourself — but challenge yourself. You are doing this for those who cannot. You are taking on the challenge in solidarity with those who are fighting the biggest fight of their lives.  

Looking for a quick and easy distance?  Ride a leisure 5 miles around Norton Commons.  Adults and children six years and older can participate in this open road route that includes one Pit Stop along the way.  Adults are allowed to pull a bike trailer with their child.  Children riding in a bike trailer are not required to register.  NO BIKES WITH TRAINING WHEELS OR STRIDER BIKES ALLOWED.  

Choose your distance 

• Never cycled before? We recommend the 5-mile or 15-mile option. 
• Cycled some, but it’s been a while?  Try the 15-mile route. This is a great distance for active beginners to novice riders.
