We discovered that while the trails are the initial draw, it is the shared experiences of friends, families and local businesses that truly define the region\u2019s spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That insight shaped this year\u2019s event into something more expansive and focused on community as much as the trails themselves. Throughout the day, local businesses and cycling outfitters will play an active role, not just as vendors but as guides and educators on the trails. Participants can join group rides led by local experts, creating opportunities to experience the region\u2019s terrain with firsthand insight. \u201cThe success of our inaugural year taught us that attendees aren\u2019t just looking for a place to ride; they are looking for a place to belong,\u201d Wiedrich says.<\/p>\n<p>Proceeds from registrations and vendor participation are directed toward trail maintenance, advocacy and infrastructure. \u201cEvery registration, every vendor fee and every dollar raised flows directly back into the trails we ride through Pisgah Area SORBA,\u201d Wiedrich says. \u201cThe community\u2019s celebration of the trails directly funds their preservation\u2014a result of tireless advocacy, maintenance and expert design by PAS and community volunteers. By centering the event around PAS\u2019s mission, we are educating riders that a great trail day requires more than just time in the woods on a bike. It requires a dedicated effort to improve access and infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The festival continues into Sunday, May 17, with the Pisgah All Mountain Challenge, a race designed to be different. Rather than prioritizing speed across the entire course, the challenge times only downhill segments, encouraging a more social experience. \u201cOur goal with the Pisgah All Mountain Challenge is to focus less on \u2018the podium\u2019 and more on the community and on showcasing the trails while testing riders\u2019 skills,\u201d Wiedrich says. \u201cWe wanted to lower the barrier to entry for those who might be intimidated by traditional high-intensity racing, proving that you can challenge yourself on the trails without losing the joy of the ride, with both long- and short-course options.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, organizers see the event growing into a regional draw while maintaining its core mission. \u201cThe vision for the WNC Bike Fest is to become an event that draws cycling and trail enthusiasts from across the Southeast and beyond,\u201d Wiedrich says. \u201cUltimately, a successful future means the WNC Bike Fest is not just a weekend on the calendar, but a vital engine for regional tourism and how a cycling event can give back more to the land than it takes. \u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Learn more at <a href=\"http:\/\/PisgahAreaSORBA.org\/WNCBikeFest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PisgahAreaSORBA.org\/WNCBikeFest<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Saturday, May 16, Pisgah Area SORBA presents the second annual WNC Bike Fest at Ecusta Brewing Company from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Designed for riders of all skill levels, the festival brings together guided rides, vendors and opportunities to support the trail systems that define WNC&#8217;s outdoor culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":91844,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[62,106],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-91842","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-outdoors","category-recreation"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 -
