Enjoy the scenic roads of the Greenbrier and Pocahontas counties of West Virginia as you pedal along with other cyclists riding to create a world free of MS! Road cyclists will take in some of West Virginia’s most beautiful territory sneaking a peak at Senator Rockefeller’s countryside home and riding through Greenbank Observatory. Likewise, trail cyclists will enjoy the beautiful Greenbrier River Trail—a packed, crusher surface with a mere one percent grade.
This fun and safe ride is fully supported with rest stops every 10-15 miles, Support and Gear (SAG) vehicles, medics, and bike mechanics.
The first day concludes at Cass Scenic Railroad State Park and a shuttle is provided up to Snowshoe Mountain Resort where cyclists can enjoy the breathtaking views while partaking a delicious meal, massages, musical entertainment and an evening program. Sunday’s route heads cyclists back to The Greenbrier (a national historic landmark, with impeccable service and outstanding amenities) for another fun finish line celebration. The sense of accomplishment that you’ll feel as you cross the finish line can only be matched by the knowledge that you are making a difference in the lives of people affected by MS.
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society is dedicated to a vision of a world free of MS. Your participation in Bike MS provides help for today and hope for tomorrow by funding education programs, support services, advocacy, and research.
