OutRiders Boston to Provincetown Bike Ride

Join us for the best one-day Boston to Provincetown bicycle ride on the calendar. This is a social ride that requires no fundraising. Even better, it is a weekend happening and a great way to kick off your summer vacation and bicycling season. We are a diverse group of people (mostly gay and lesbian, but all are welcome to the challenge). It is a serious ride, but many who go are also recreational riders who are looking to up their miles. All day long, you will be supported by an outstanding support crew and supplied with all that you need to cross the finish line. Start training, gather your friends and register!

  The ride is limited to 150 riders. No registrations accepted after June 3rd. Sorry, no refunds.
