Not a Ride … an Adventure!

The Second Sunday Ride is all about having an adventure by bicycle. Each month our rides explore scenic, historic, cultural, and other interesting places or events.
Most rides are within an hour's drive of Auburn, Alabama.
No rides are too long or fast. We tailor them to fit about anyone. Join us!

Our Next Adventure

The (No) Blueberries and (No) Wine Ride
Sunday, July 12

The Second Sunday Ride for July is the (No) Blueberries and (No) Wine Ride.

This is our annual ride for picking blueberries and tasting local wines. Unfortunately, Blueberry Havens' berries are finished (warm winter cut production) and Hodge's Vineyards and Wine Tasting Room is temporarily closed on Sundays (staff shortage during the pandemic).

Still, we will have a pleasant, 14–mile ride. Picnic lunch afterwards if you like. Hodges has offered parking and the use of their picnic tables. Blueberry Havens will have its restroom open if you need it during the ride (it will add four miles to your ride).

Hodges' restrooms will be closed. If you stay for lunch but want restroom facilities, they will available at Blueberry Havens and at Walnut Hill convenience stores. Both are 8-mile drives from Hodges.
​
Date: Sunday, July 12.
Time: 9:00 AM. at Hodges Vineyards and Wine Tasting Room.
Road Conditions: All paved. Any bikes/tires will be fine.
Bring: Water. Picnic lunch.

Coronavirus
We follow the recommendations and laws for riding during these coronavirus days:
  • Keep six feet or more between riders (always a good idea for riding).
  • If one feels the urge to sneeze, cough, expectorate or flatulate we ask that one back off until that special moment has passed.
  • It's a good idea to carry a mask in case you will be unsocially close to others outside or inside buildings or cars.
All good things to do while riding adventurously.

Here's an article from Adventure Cycling about cycling during these times. They interview a cyclist who is a retired Chief Medical Officer of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
