Stella Store Gravel Ride

Stella Store Gravel Ride – Saturday, August 8, 2026 at 8:00 AM
Hosted by Bruce

Rise and shine, DEC! We're rolling out of the Stella store at 0800 sharp for a 32-mile gravel ride through the Croatan National Forest — quiet forest roads, plenty of green, and hardly a car in sight. This is what gravel bikes were made for.

Expect a steady social pace, flat Down East terrain, and good company. Bring water, a spare tube, and your morning legs — and maybe knock the mud off afterward. 😄

📍 Meet: Stella store
🕗 Roll out: 8:00 AM
📏 Distance: 32 miles
🚗 Parking: Please don't park in the area near the silver tanks in the rear, and avoid blocking the front of the red barn to the side.

The Stella store is kind enough to let us stage here — as always, it goes a long way to grab some snacks or a drink from the market to show our appreciation and represent the cycling community well. 🙌

No-drop, all are welcome. See you there! 🚴
