About the event

 

The Noxturnal Ride is a one-night-only chance to ride Nox past sundown, while raising money for the Tower Rd. trailhead pavilion

This is a special event. Registration is limited to 150 riders. Online Registration closes October 31st at midnight, or as soon as all available spaces fill up. There will be no day-of registration. 
 

Dreading Daylight savings? The thought of less time to ride your bike got you down? Love riding Nox? Wish you could ride there at night? Now you can! Calling all spirits of the forest! Join the Valley Mountain Bikers in lighting up the night at Lake Nockamixon on Saturday, November 2nd from 6 to 9 pm for what we hope will become the annual  “Noxturnal” night ride. 

 

VMB has obtained special permission from Lake Nockamixon State Park to host the unique one-night-only “Fun”draising event. In addition to rolling through one of our most beautifully maintained trail systems at night, your paid registration gets you: one free “Ride the Valley” VMB bumper sticker; complimentary hot chocolate, coffee, and some glowy bits to make your bike look extra special. Unfortunately, due to the drought conditions, a fire ban is in effect in Bucks County and we won't be able to offer s'mores over a fire this year. 

What you Need: a properly functioning mountain bike, helmet, and at least one bike light—preferably one rated for trail riding (1000 lumen, 2 hour burn time recommended). Ebikes are welcome as long as they meet PADCNR e-bike policy ands standards.
Ride Routes: We’ve set up one 7-ish mile loop that participants can ride once, twice (for 14 miles), or three times (20-ish miles). This year, we are adding a 20 mile route to celebrate the club's 20th year anniversary!  The loop is available to view on RideWithGPS here: short We’ll send the riders in each category out in groups of 10 to 15 riders so we don’t overcrowd the trails and will have course marshals on the trails to direct the riders. Be sure to stop by the trail-side aid station for hot chocolate, coffee, and snacks! 

Parking: All parking and event check-in will be at the Haycock Boat Launch off Rt 563 in Haycock Township. There will be no event parking at the Tower Rd Lot. Please follow parking instructions from volunteers when you ride. We encourage everyone to carpool to make sure everyone gets a parking space. 

Check-In: All riders must check in at the VMB tent in the Haycock Launch Parking Lot. Check-in will open at 5:00 p.m. Please plan to arrive and check in by 5:45 p.m.

Rain Date: November 16th

Ride Departure Times:
Three loops: 6:00 p.m.
Two loops: 6:15 p.m.
One loop: 6:30 p.m.

Please, Be Cool! We have been given special permission by the State Park to hold this event. We must respect the trails, the park, and the rules we’ve been given. All riders must be off the trails by 8:30 p.m. Please respect instructions from rider leaders, sweeps, volunteers, and park staff. Leave no trace, and keep the trails and parking lots free of trash.
