Description

Join Adaptive Adventures, as part of our National VA Cycling Team Tour and, the greater Bike Night at COTA (Circuit of the Americas) Formula 1 Race Track.

A truly inclusive event, catering only to bikes! This course will feature the fastest lap time award to all classes, including recumbent trike, and handcycle. We will also recognize the best segments, using Strava, while the straight a way sprint, the turn two 13 story hill climb, and the whole loop. Our staff and mentors will help guide you to better your lap times, your efficiency, or perhaps a little adjustment to your posture on the bike. What a great night to celebrate speed and challenge!

This program allows cyclists to maintain socially distant bike around the 'circuit', giving you the opportunity to experience the 3.4-mile, 20-turn racetrack at your own pace. After the ride concludes, cyclists can replenish and recharge with a socially distant tailgate at your cars, with fellow riders in the 3,000 car Paddock parking lot!
