Start #earthday with a purpose!

Here is how it works;

You have up to 24 hours beginning Saturday April 20th @ 6:00am to ride/log as many laps as possible on the Norfolk VA Bike Loop. The starting line & registration point is at 1500 Colley Ave Norfolk VA. We ask that every registered rider (ages 18 and up or with a registered adult) checks in at the event HUB by our ecoCounter kiosk on Calley Ave. to help keep track of your laps and miles; remember integrity counts! Every time you check in at the HUB we will mark a complete lap or 4 miles (note: We will be using the "inner" clockwise loop for our route). At the end of the 24 hour time allotment (6am Sunday April 21st) we will tally your laps and whoever has the most....WINS a prize courtesy of our beloved local bike shops!

REGISTRATION ENDS FRIDAY APRIL 19TH 6PM

Signup and register early so you can get your pledge sheets filled out, submitted and have your supporters ready to donate to the charity of your choice before you start!
