Experience the great mountain road rides of the Blue Ridge Parkway Loops, and beautiful rides in the Brevard valley, including three remote starts from Saluda.
Bring your mountain bike and ride in the Pisgah or Dupont State Forests, featuring some of the finest singletrack trails in the Southeast! For the best of both worlds, bring both bikes! And, go for a hike, take in the Apple Festival in Hendersonville, tour the Biltmore House or Carl Sandberg’s home, or just cool it by Deep Woods Lake.
Our base of operations is beautiful Deep Woods Camp, featuring rustic campstyle
cabin accommodations, so you bring your sleeping bag, or sheets and blankets, towels, etc., or you can camp in your own tent next to the beautiful private lake and swim after your ride. This is a share-the-work ride, so we all participate in one kitchen cooking or clean-up duty, which adds fun and camaraderie to the weekend. We have fun and unwind on this weekend!
Motel option- If you wish to stay elsewhere, you will need to make your own
reservations. All riders must attend the riders’ meeting Sat. at 8:30 am
Riding in the mountains is exhilarating, beautiful and very strenuous, so start training early! Or, ride the valley!
