The Hellbender: A Blue Ridge Ride
The 2nd Annual Hellbender Bike Ride will take place on Saturday September 14th, 2024. Riders can choose to participate in either the 35-mile, 50-mile, or 80-mile route (there is no Pond Mountain Challenge for 2024). Each route starts and ends in Historic Downtown Lansing, NC.

 
 
Each route will take you through the backroads of the most scenic part of Ashe County, North Carolina. Riders will weave through the hills and hollars, past old tobacco barns and homesteads rich with history. With both paved and gravel roads, the terrain will be challenging but rewarding.
