The Shenandoah Bike Foliage Festival offers a full weekend of cycling in some of the most beautiful parts of Virginia. Constant vistas of the Blue Ridge and Allegheny Mountains enhance your enjoyment of the scenic countryside of the Shenandoah Valley. We offer rides for all levels: from shorter family routes to gravel, mid-distance, metrics and a Saturday century. 

You’ll pass bucolic farmlands (where the pace of life slows down so much, you may even pass a few horse-drawn buggies), trees loaded with changing Fall colors, historic Civil War battlefields, and small towns with picturesque town squares and classic Americana architecture.

Our festival — which annually draws between 500 to 70 riders from up and down the mid-Atlantic states and beyond — was recently featured by mapmyride.com as one of “10 Epic Fall Century Rides in the U.S.” and in U.S. News and World Report’s Travel as one of America’s Best Fall Bike Rides. We go out of our way to make sure you have enjoyable routes with plenty of rest stops (with a variety of snacks ) and a hearty lunch on Saturday and brunch on Sunday prepared by the master cooks of our local Ruritan Clubs.

 
Start Located At: St. Pauls Church, 2000 Shutterlee Mill Road, Staunton, VA 24401
