8th Annual BIKE 5 Event
8th Annual BIKE 5 Event
Bike/Walk Central Florida is hosting its 8th annual BIKE 5 this year on Saturday, October 26, 2024. The annual biking event is possible thanks to our sponsors and partnerships with the cities of Orlando, Winter Park, Maitland, Casselberry, the town of Eatonville, and Seminole County!
What is BIKE 5?
It started as Bike 5 Cities, a 28-mile bike ride to show people where they can comfortably ride through neighborhoods in Winter Park, Eatonville, Maitland, Casselberry, and Orlando. It has evolved into a series of rides to show people of all ages and abilities where to ride comfortably.
BIKE 5 | 5 Mile, 5 Parks, 5 Cities
Bike 5 Miles – a Family Friendly Guided Group ride
Bike 5 Miles is the family-friendly ride that people of all ages and abilities will enjoy. Join Bike/Walk staff and volunteers for a proper helmet fitting, safety chat, and practice some bike skills before the ride. This family-friendly ride will be guided by Ride Leaders from Ward Park on a 5-mile route through Baldwin Park and back to Winter Park.
BIKE 5 Parks – an 11-mile Guided Group ride
Bike 5 Parks is a new route this year designed for those who are not quite ready for a 30-mile ride, but want to dust off their bike and sharpen their cycling skills. This casual group ride starts and finishes near Ward Park at the Cady Way Pool trailhead. You will ride by 5+ parks including: Ward Park, Veteran’s Memorial Park, Lake Baldwin Park, Harbor Park, and Lake Druid Park.
