Harrisonburg: The Bike Capital of Virginia

Another great piece from Adventure Seen. This time its all about bicycles and Tourism. Harrisonburg is known as a destination for beautiful road riding and phenomenal mountain biking. We are also the Bike Capital of Virginia. This year the Shenandoah Valley Bicycle Coalition along with the Harrisonburg-Rockingham MPO is holding the third Annual Harrisonburg & Rockingham Bike-Walk Summit on October 10. The theme of the summit is "The benefits of bicycling and walking tourism." Just listen to Ben King (VA native and 2014 Tour de France finisher on Team Garmin Sharp) talk about how much he loves to ride around Harrisonburg.

Jeremiah Bishop's Alpine Loop Gran Fondo



Beautiful weather and a record breaking turnout both contributed to an amazing day for Jeremiah Bishop's Alpine Loop Gran Fondo. In the second year the event grew from 250 riders to 400. It is an event not to be missed and with a distance for nearly everyone (35, 75, or 105 miles distance options) We can't wait to help out again next year.
