Website

The Fall Foliage Bike Festival annually draws between 550 to 750 riders from up and down the mid-Atlantic states and beyond. The weekend festival has been featured by mapmyride.com as one of "10 Epic Fall Century Rides in the U.S." and in U.S. News and World Report's Travel as one of America's Best Fall Bike Rides. We go out of our way to make sure you have enjoyable routes with plenty of rest stops (with a variety of snacks ), a hearty post-ride meal on Saturday and brunch on Sunday morning prepared by the master cooks of our local Ruritan Clubs.
