Anthem Moonlight Ride
August 4, 2012 - Sports Backers Stadium

Take in the sights and sounds of RVA by bike... under a full moon... with 2,000 other riders decked out in crazy lights and costumes. Then top it off with pizza, ice cream, a live concert and a Blue Moon beer (for you 21-and-uppers!). We even have plenty of exhibitors and interactive activities for the fam, and you’re guaranteed to have a fabulous night on the town!

With a Full Moon (17-mile) course and a Half Moon (8-mile) option, there’s something for everyone. And if you’re not in it for the yellow jacket, take advantage of our well-stocked rest stops on Monument Avenue and in Bryan Park.

*If you are under 18, your parent/guardian must accompany you at walk-up registration.
