Cades Cove Bike Ride

Rescheduled

" From First to Second Automobile Free Wednesday for 2026"

We will start the ride no later than 7:00
PM.
Please keep your RSVP up to date!!

This is a rain or shine event. Come prepared.

Wednesday evening bike ride on the Cades Cove Loop Road.

No Cars on Wednesdays during the summer! It will just be bikers, walkers, and the animals, which we will see a lot of, so make sure your phone is charged for pictures!

Meet at 6:30 pm in the parking lot at the Cades Cove kiosk with your bike ready to ride. There is also overflow parking, so just follow the directions of the volunteers.

We will start the ride, no later than 7:00 PM, or once everyone signed up has showed.

The trip is 11 miles and will take about 2 hours, maybe a little more or less, depending on how much biking people have been doing this year and the number of stops we make. This is not a race unless you want to.

There are a lot of short up hills that may be difficult for those who haven't been biking much lately. Go ahead and jump on your bike or Peloton between now and then to help get you ready!

This is not a hard ride but can have some challenging hills.

Things to bring. Plenty of water, head lamp with fresh batteries, helmet is strongly recommended. The head lamp could be important as it will be pushing dark as we finish the ride.

After the ride we plan to grab something to eat at the Blackhorse Pub and Brewery or Smoky Mountain Brewery in Maryville. The Abby and Peaceful Side Social will most likely be closed. Other suggestions welcome.

This is a fun time, so get on the list!!!
