We couldn’t be more excited for the third annual Greenway Cycle Challenge on September 12! Explore the Genesee Valley Greenway this month with a family-friendly 10-mile bike ride and 5K walk/run.
At the Cycle Challenge, there’s something for everyone. Cyclists can take on the 10-mile ride from Canawaugus Park in Scottsville to Avon Driving Park, while runners and walkers can participate in a 5K that starts and finishes in Avon.
Hosted by the Friends of the Genesee Valley Greenway, the ride features a number of outdoor education stops for younger riders and concludes at a finish line celebration complete with local vendors, equestrian demonstrations, music, and food trucks.
