Pedal Through Picturesque Landscapes

From scenic road rides to exhilarating gravel races and mountain biking adventures, cycling in the Finger Lakes region offers an incredible variety of experiences.

What The Press Is Saying

Stewardship

I call it a playground around here. It’s just a biker’s paradise. And it’s still kind of a hidden gem. … You can do any type of riding you want.

Matt Curbeau

It’s not just cycling, it’s the bigger picture here. … Awesome restaurants, beautiful hotels, lots of breweries, wineries, cideries.

Chad Zimar

Finger Lakes is a great place to bike because we have the canal here. It’s just beautiful seeing it not in a vehicle.

Karen Rogers

True inclusion happens when everyone can show up, participate, and belong. Recreation isn’t just fun—it’s transformational.
