Third Annual Biking for Brittany Ride
Join Brittany’s Hope as we continue our most anticipated event, Biking for Brittany on Sunday, June 30, 2024. Cyclists will embark on a metric century (62 miles) or metric half-century (34 miles) route from the Historic Star Barn Village in Elizabethtown, PA. Cyclists will ride along the beautiful waterfronts, and through the rolling hills and picturesque landscape of Elizabethtown, Hershey, and surrounding counties. Biking for Brittany is not timed so you can enjoy the ride the way you want to ride! From e-bikes to race bikes, all are welcome!
New for 2024!! Three timed Strava Segments with prizes (Lupine Lights and more!). Also, new for 2024, fun post ride event to include burger’s and dog’s on the grill, ice cream, music, and a few cool cycling related vendors!
If you’re unable to join us on June 30th, there are ways you can still provide support. Join the ride virtually, support the ride by fundraising, or make a donation to a cyclist. 100% of your ride dollars go directly toward the adoption of children with special needs!
This is a rain or shine event.
