Philly Bike Ride 2024
Philly Bike Ride is thrilled to announce the third annual event, scheduled for Saturday, October 19, 2024. The recreational ride offers a festive atmosphere with iconic views, snacks, drinks and live music along the way as you pass through historic landmarks and neighborhoods such as Independence Hall, City Hall, LOVE Park, Chinatown, Old City, Penn’s Landing and Boathouse Row on Kelly Drive. Riders can choose between a 20-mile course or a shorter 7.6-mile version, both culminating at the iconic Philadelphia Museum of Art, near the famous Rocky Steps.
The free post-ride festival, including a “Movement Zone” with official sponsor Independence Blue Cross (IBX), features live music, wellness activities, a beer garden, food trucks and family-friendly fun. Before the October 19 event, attendees are invited to join the Packet Pickup Party on October 18.
