Old Fort, NC, a vibrant community nestled at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains, has always been a symbol of resilience. But when Hurricane Helene stormed through, it left behind more than just flooded streets; it disrupted lives, shuttered beloved businesses, and damaged cherished landmarks, including Old Fort Elementary School.
Now, we have an opportunity to come together, to ride together, and to rebuild together. Join us for this inspiring cycling event, where every pedal stroke becomes a step toward restoring the heart of Old Fort. Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or just looking to make a difference, your participation will help provide critical support to our neighbors as they rebuild homes, classrooms, and livelihoods. Donate today through the McDowell Trails Association and be a part of the movement to bring hope back to Old Fort.
The MTA invites you to experience the 4th Edition of the Rock n Roller, a bike ride that showcases what makes McDowell County a cycling destination. You experience the scenic beauty of the mountains, rivers, and foliage. This early spring ride serves as an excellent training ride to set the tone for the remainder of the 2025 cycling season. Let’s show the world what we can accomplish when a community rallies behind its own.
