Bent Creek Pedal Fest

Relay Details

Join us for an 8-hour checkpoint race on October 24, running from 9 AM to 5 PM at Bent Creek Community Park! Teams can have between 1 and 4 members, and the goal is simple: score as many checkpoint points as your team can before time runs out. All experience levels are welcome.

This year there are multiple checkpoint options instead of one fixed route. For each lap, start at Bent Creek Community Park, choose one checkpoint, ride there by any route you like, then return to Bent Creek Community Park. Teams can repeat any checkpoint as many times as they want, and there is no requirement to complete every checkpoint. Harder checkpoints are worth more points, so teams can decide whether to chase bigger routes or stack shorter laps.

Laps will be tracked through Strava, so you must register and join a team for laps to count. Team members take turns completing laps; as soon as one person finishes and returns to Bent Creek Community Park, the next rider can begin.

After the race wraps at 5 PM, stick around for the same good stuff as last year: potluck, bonfire, awards, and time to hang out.

Participation is free, but we strongly recommend making a $20 donation to Bent Creek Community Park. You can donate with cash at the event or through the Bent Creek Community Park donation page. To register, donate, and get more details, click the “Connect with Strava” button above.
