“Wild and Wonderful “is the state slogan. “The Mountain State” is the nickname. There is an energy and tranquility in West Virginia you are not likely to find in any other state.

West Virginia is packed with history, heritage, adventure and good ole southern hospitality which will create a memorable cycling experience you should not miss.

This 4-day riding and social event will be designed for rider levels from recreational to advanced. We will visit and reside nightly in the historic town of Lewisburg. There will be one low cost for up to four days of riding and included activities and services. Every day will include shorter casual options and “advanced” options. Distances can vary from 15 miles of touring to a choice of metric century rides. The group ride will be limited to the first 20 riders. We will ride some quiet, one lane roads in great little towns near: Lewisburg, White Sulphur Springs, Crow, VA and the Greenbrier River Trail.

This area is within 8 hours driving time for cyclists coming from the Ohio Valley or much of the East coast, including DC, NY, Philly, Pittsburgh, Richmond, Raleigh, and Cincinnati. If heading back to the upper East coast or toward Chicago, you can easily catch an Amtrak train just outside the Greenbrier Inn, and we can ship your bike home to you (White Sulphur Spings Amtrak does not offer check baggage service). Please call about their schedule.

Each day of cycling will take us through quiet, country roads of the scenic Greenbrier River Valley, parts of the Midland Trail National Scenic Byway, sections of the Farm Heritage Road, or along the banks of the New River (which, by the way, is thought to be one of the oldest rivers in the world) and a day of riding the Greenbrier River trail with a hybrid style bike.

The towns in the Greenbrier area offer great small-town charm, art colonies, upscale southern dining and wonderful adventure activities. You can spend one day on the New River for a day of rafting some of the best whitewater in the world. Yet another afternoon, we tour “the Bunker” beneath the historic Greenbrier Inn. After the tour, you should think about staying a few extra days, take in more rafting on the Gauley and New Rivers, fly fish the many mountain streams, zip line excursions or indulge in a little mountain biking on the many miles of trails. New routes are available for those staying after for some gravel riding near The New River National Park. We will hook you up with the best area guides.
