North Carolina Amateur Sports announced that the eighteenth annual Cycle North Carolina Coastal Ride will return to Little Washington, NC on April 23rd-25th, 2021. Cycling routes of varying lengths from 5 miles to 100 miles will be offered to celebrate the start of the spring cycling season.
Washington will host the Coastal Ride for the sixth time, allowing participants to camp along the waterfront in downtown or inside the Civic Center. Many other participants will fill the hotels, bed and breakfast inns and vacation homes for the weekend.
The fun-filled weekend will offer three days of cycling and feature some great Coastal Carolina food, music, and festivities. The CNC Coastal Ride will also include many off-the-bike recreational activities in the Washington area. Historic walking tours, kayaking, boat cruises, great local restaurants, and live entertainment will fill time away from the bike and provide a taste of spring in Coastal North Carolina.
