Located just 20 miles north of Charlotte, Davidson is a charming college town known throughout the Southeast as a pedestrian, pet and bicycle friendly community. Be sure to enjoy Davidson’s many quaint shops, restaurants, greenways, bike lanes, and parks in town or one of the 18 breweries, beer and wine shops in the surrounding Lake Norman area. The Village Green will host all event activities and is situated on Main Street in the heart of downtown Davidson across from Davidson College.
The riders are welcomed back into town by the Mayor of Davidson himself playing live music, followed by the Josey Wails Band sponsored by Levine Law Group. Sit back, relax, enjoy the light food, music, and a post ride beer from Hoptown Brewery, Lost Worlds Beer, Sierra Nevada, and HopFly Brewery.
