Friday Questions

  • Yes, you can camp out at Reflection Riding on Friday night.

  • Yes, Two Bikes Chattanooga will be open on Friday from 12-6pm but we will be closed all day on Saturday.

  • Well that’s no fun. All you need to know, is bring a bike with tires bigger than 40mm, there will be single track, and it’s no drop. I’d say the pace on the road will be between 12-14 mph? And I think it’ll be about 10-15 miles.

    We’ll start and finish at Two Bikes, 1810 E. Main St.

  • It’s right next to the bike shop. 1800 E Main St, Chattanooga, TN 37404.

  • No, everyone’s welcome even if you don’t have a ticket to Bike Camp.

  • Might as well bring ‘um. Plus a lock for Mean Jeens.

  • Unfortunately no, Mean Jeens is a bar and you gotta show them your ID and such.

Saturday Questions

  • Ugh, great question. I feel a little overwhelmed too. But it’s actually easy. Meet at Velo Coffee at 9am with your bike all packed up for Bike Camping. We’ll head out to Reflection Riding with Ronnie leading the way at 10am.

    If you’d like to drive to Bike Camp, you can arrive at Reflection Riding around 11, and you’ll be in good shape.

    Velo: 509 E Main St #3, Chattanooga, TN 37408

    Reflection Riding: 400 Garden Rd, Chattanooga, TN 37419

  • No, all activities are drop in.

  • If you’re doing the grand depart with Ronnie, you need to arrive at Velo Coffee at 9:00am (wheels at 10). If you’re driving to Reflection Riding, I’d plan to get there beween 10:00 and 11:00.



  • Working on it . . .

  • yeah for sure!

  • The Vendor Village is open from 11am to 6:00 pm

  • Is your bike sick as hell? Then enter it into the bike show, and folks will vote on if they think it’s the best one. Simple as that. Last year we had sick trophies, hopefully we' will again this year!

    Do you need to register? Yes, on the better unite page.

  • Yes, register on the BetterUnite page. Bring all your bike parts and Yugioh cards to buy sell and trade.

  • There will be food trucks from 12-3 on Saturday and 8-10am Sunday.

    There is a complimentary community dinner on Saturday. Mean Jeens is making us Chili and we will have veggie and vegan options.

    You don’t need to bring food to cook, but you’re welcome to, if you’d rather do that.

  • Yes, dinner is included. All other meals cost $$$.

  • Yeah, I think so! It’s relaxed, social, and welcoming.

  • Bike and helmet

    Cash or Card for vendors

    Your bike packing stuff

    A chair and blanket is nice

Sunday Questions

  • Not exactly. Think of these rides as courses that each rider can ride at their own pace.

    The courses will be marked, so you will not need a head unit (those GPS do-dads on people’s handlebars) to complete the route.

  • One food truck will be available from 8-10am.

  • The rides will leave right by the campsites, it’ll be easy to find. All rides depart together at 10am.

  • These are untimed group rides, not a race! There will not be trophies, or anything like that.

  • Each ride is progressively more challenging as they get longer. The 20 mile has zero single track but a decent amount of gravel. The 40 has a lot of gravel and some singletrack.

  • Yes, there will be one aid station along the route.

  • The perfect bike for someone with strong bike handling skills would be a gravel bike with 50ish mm tires.

    For the 20, any gravel bike will do.

    For the 40 mile route, having biggish tires will make the ride easier, but you can do it on 40mm tires for sure.

  • No, after the rides it’s time to pack up and head home. XOXO
