These After Hours get-togethers are short, low-key adventures. Think hanging out with a night excursion thrown in. We’ll wrap up with food and good conversations around a campfire. Let’s start with a group ride in Red River Gorge while those nice-gravel Forest Service roads are still closed!

This is a casual, all-paces-welcome group ride on a mixed surface route (about 60% good gravel, 40% paved). If you need to shorten things, you can cut off the Rockbridge section, saving roughly 6 miles and 400’ of climbing.
We’ll have homemade soup, bread, and hot cocoa waiting when you get back - with time to hang around a campfire.
GEAR: bike lights, headlamp, and reflectives. For post-ride - camp chair and drinks.COST: FREE
|| JUST SHOW UP ||
A few of us will be camping afterwards; you’re welcome to join. Wondering if it’s cool to show up straight to work with baggy eyes, smelling like a campfire on a Friday morning? Super cool. Respect. -
