To become a Cyclepath there are a couple of options:
1) Register for the BikeMS in New Bern (link above) and fundraise the minimum $300 to participate. We have members that ride with us in September only and welcome anyone wishing to take this path.
2) Ride with us on Saturdays (as many as you can) before the BikeMS event in New Bern + contribute $25 yearly dues + volunteer for SAG duty.
Doing (1) and/or (2) provides you with:
We have a Team Account on Ride With GPS. All are welcome to join (for free). Weekly ride notices will be shared by eMail where you can then RSVP for a particular event by clicking a link in that eMail. Requests to join our eMail list can be sent to:
