BOO hoo, oh my gourd!

It was witchful thinking but unfortunately Mother Nature is not as dead-icated to biking as we are and so we have to cancel the Tour de Fright.

Thank you for signing up and we hope you'll be joining us again soon.

Did you catch the Newport Daily News article about tourism-related traffic congestion? bit.ly/4ozuM1r

Thanks for an unforgettable season of Full Moon Rides — and to AARP Rhode Island for making this year shine so bright.

Highly recommend riding around southern Newport with 60 of your @bikenewportri.bsky.social friends to admire the moon and water. Barring that, go check out the harvest super moon before she sets.
