The 4th Annual Hellbender Bike Ride will take place on Saturday September 12th, 2026. Riders can choose to participate in either the 25-mile, 35-mile, 50-mile, or 80-mile route. Each route starts and ends in Historic Downtown Lansing, NC.
 

Each route will take you through the backroads of the most scenic part of Ashe County, North Carolina. Riders will weave through the hills and hollers, past old tobacco barns and homesteads rich with history. With both paved and gravel roads, the terrain will be challenging but rewarding.
