When you ride with BikeADK, you ride for the Adirondacks. In 2023 those miles helped us generate over $46,000 for community organizations and nonprofits. You did that!
The Empire State Trail will welcome new bicyclists to the Adirondack Park. Where, and how, they ride once they arrive. Well, that's the fun part. For most, that might include jumping off the trail.
After nearly a decade in the making, the first phase of the Adirondack Rail Trail is officially OPEN! Plus, there's already big plans for the Lake Placid Depot which marks the northern end of the trail.
Word on the street is that Lake Placid will be hosting the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup September 27-29 and we definitely don't want you (or us) to miss it, so we're shifting Bike the Barns one week earlier to Saturday, September 21.
What's better than a bike shop that doubles as an ice cream stop, and hosts group rides? Good Ol' Spokes does all three.
Whether you're looking for a single day group ride with all the trimmings, a multi-day event for the entire club, or a small group experience with your social peloton, we've got you. Registration for most opens mid January, but it's not too early to mark your calendar.
If you’re looking for a welcoming bike group that will help you achieve your cycling goals from the Capital Region into the Adirondacks, then you should check out the Mohawk Hudson Cycling Club.

Whether you're into cyclocross, mountain biking, gravel grinding, road cycling or pretty much anything on two people powered wheels, the Adirondack Cycling Club is into it too.
After the 2022 Handlebarley Gravel Tour, numerous riders suggested expanding the event to two days. They were right.
The Barkeater Trails Alliance undertook four major projects this summer--three machine-built flow trails and one sweat-built single-track. One day in late September, I rode them all and was blown away. Here's why.
