We love bikes, we love beer, and we love getting a group together for a fun ride like this so stay tuned for the next one.
Strider Cup World Championship
The cutest race you'll ever see came back to Charlotte this year for the Strider World Championship. We were out there with our sister shop, Uptown Cycles, and were thrilled to see so many kids excited about bikes.
Strider bike racing gives children ages 2-6 the opportunity to test out their skills, compete, and make friends while learning how to ride a bike. This year, the Strider World Cup brought together kids from across the world including Japan, China, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Ireland, and El Salvador.
Poker Ride
Thanks to everyone who joined us on our first ever Poker Ride -- it was a blast! This was a fun, slow-paced group ride that went approximately 10 miles around Huntersville. All bikes were welcome -- people were riding everything from road bikes, to fixed gears, to full suspension mountain bikes!
How the Poker Ride worked is everyone was given a card at each of the four bars we visited: Main Street Tavern, Crafty Beer Guys, Into the Wind, and Harvey's. Everyone stayed together as a group and we returned to the shop where the final cards were handed out. Whoever had the best five card poker hand won!
Fall Mud Ride
When Mother Nature gives you lots of rain and the trails are closed, we get creative and go on brown way rides. Everyone is welcome so long as you're ready to have fun and get muddy!
Winter Mud Ride
Rain, snow, and more rain equals lots of mud. Thanks to everyone who joined us for yet another fun-filled and mud-flinging day! Check our Facebook and Instagram page for future rides!
Blind Wine Tasting
The Huntersville shop hosts a variety wine tasting events throughout each month. These tastings are lead by one of our wine distributors as we sample different collections.
The last event we held was a Blind Wine Tasting where we challenged our other sense while enjoying different types of wine.
After a long day at work, stop by and unwind at the bike shop as we uncork and pour our latest selection.
