San Diego, Calif. /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Bike the Coast will be hosting nearly two-thousand riders along Highway 101 and surrounding communities on Nov. 2. The Event offers multiple distances, allowing all experience levels to take part in the scenic tour of some of Southern California’s historic beach towns.

Participants of the 25, 50 and 100 mile rides will have the opportunity to ride through multiple beach towns including Oceanside, Carlsbad, Encinitas, Solana Beach and Del Mar. Those participating in the 7 and 15 mile courses will ride on the San Luis Rey River Trail. All courses showcase some of Southern California’s most scenic areas, creating an ideal way for locals and visitors to tour the area on a leisurely bike ride or while logging a workout.

Dine O’side, Bike the Coast’s finish festival, will take place at the Oceanside Pier, and feature local food and drinks, live rock music performed by Gone Blonde Band and a beer garden hosted by BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse and Presented by Ride MS. All proceeds from the Beer Garden benefit Ride MS, San Diego.

“We’re so excited to be bringing back Bike the Coast this year. It really is an event for everyone, with courses for the more experienced riders and routes that are fit for the whole family,” said Mike Bone, President and CEO of Spectrum Sports Management, which produces Bike The Coast. “On top of putting together a great bike ride for our participants, we also really focus on our post-race Finish Festival to ensure that riders have a great place to cool down and enjoy themselves after touring our beautiful area.”

This year, Bike the Coast will once again benefit the National MS Society. The National MS Society, founded in 1946, is the global leader of a growing movement dedicated to creating a world free of MS. The Society funds cutting-edge research for a cure, drives change through advocacy and provides programs and services to help people affected by MS live their best lives.
