Pisgah Pedal Party

The Pisgah Pedal Party is a different kind of event. Actually, it’s not really an event at all.

It’s more of a multi-day group ride and hang.

 

There’s no profit motive here. Just a sincere effort to create a place and space for tradition, connection, and riding bikes. A chance to put a little more human-ness back into cycling.

 

So come hang out. Bring your friends. Ride bikes. Meet some people. Stay awhile. Have some fun. After all, it’s October in Pisgah.
