Bike MS Weekend

Bike MS is a 2-day cycling event that raises funds to support people living with multiple sclerosis in North and South Carolina and throughout the United States. Bike MS is the world’s largest cycling fundraising series where participants take on breathtaking routes and build lifelong connections. Cyclists enjoy two full days of riding through rural eastern North Carolina. Several downtown shops extend their hours to coincide with this event.

1,200 cyclists and hundreds of volunteers took part in the September 2025 Bike MS: Historic New Bern Ride, raising an incredible $1.6 million! Hosted by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, this event raises funds and awareness to help advance critical MS research, improve treatments, and ultimately find a cure for a disease that an estimated 1 million people live with in the United States.
