Event Details

Experience the beautiful countryside of Lee and Wise Counties of Southwest Virginia, on the path of the legendary Chief Benge.

You will bike the beautiful hills where the famous red-headed Cherokee warrior Chief roamed and conducted his murderous raids on early settlers before being killed in 1792 by Colonel Vincent Hobbs.

The ride will take you through coal towns more than 100 years old, down the original Trail of the Lonesome Pine in the shadows of Benges Rock.

Riders will be challenged by their choice of either a new 25 mile or 75 mile loop.

All riders will be responsible for obeying the rules of the road as this is not a closed ride. The course will be monitored. Helmets are required!

Organized by the Kiwanis Club of Norton, Va.
