This was a fun time and this ride never disappoints. We have participated in it several years now and if it continues we will probably do it annually. Tour de Hills would be more appropriate. None of them were long but there were a lot of them.  If speed does not kill it at least scratches your knee a bit

Very nice ride in Sanford, NC area. Good cause and we met some nice people. Rode the short ride and enjoyed the finish.
Charlotte Ride Around March 19th Great day and what a fun ride. Good group riding from Pineville Mall up the various greenways and through town to 1st Ward Park. Lunch and a return to the south via the light rail trail which follows the the tracks fairly closely. I would recommend this ride for anyone who wants to see a lot of Charlotte. There were some detours due to construction but all in all a great time.
This is a fun rally full of good folks and some of the most beautiful scenery on the east coast. The facebook page is always up so check it out for more details and dates for next years ride. HTW will be there, we already have reservations.
 Well deserved lunch after coming down the mountain Cycling Savvy, A safety program of the American Bicycle Education Association May 22nd Charlotte, NC8/3/2022 This was a great and at times eye-opening cycling safety class that is being taught nation wide. It is a combination of on line and riding events over a 9 hour period. the focus is on urban cycling and it can give you the confidence to navigate your own city on two or three wheels. Constantly emphasizing safety and awareness it was a lot of fun and I recommend it to anyone who may be hesitant to cycle in an urban environment.  This is one of the events we have attended for years. We meet a load of supporters and have the added advantage of one of the most beautiful parts of the country. It is a 2 day event but we have added a bit extra to make it exciting. Pre-event we added a 20+ mile ride down from the Foothills Parkway and invite anyone to join us. We capped the event with a ride in Cade's Cove without traffic is the highlight but you better get there early to get a parking spot. This should be on every trikers bucket list of rides to do.  Fun ride to help out a pet rescue near Ft Bragg, NC. Met a new couple of riders Dawn and Chris and had a great time in the sandhills.  A Great time here. This is part of the Colleton Rice Festival. It is possibly the flattest ride you will find anywhere. 6 HTW riders showed up and Paul and I represented the tail end of the 62 mile route along with an upright couple who stayed with us until the end.
 Great ride with a few minor surprises. Detours and closures but nothing we could not get past. Greenways mostly up to 1st Ward Park. Rail Line back to the South. Looks like this will be an annual event.  HTW Charlotte Mid-town ride April 2024. Romare-Bearden Park  Walterboro was a great time. We renewed a few acquaintances and made a few new ones. We lined up together but that did not last long. I rode the 62 mile route and most did the 33. All was well until I got lost not once but twice. The first time I get easily back on course but the second I just wondered around in the flatlands of SC. Finally got back on track but did turn the ride into a 64 mile ride. Here we are at the starting line ready to roll.
