We are fun group of people who share a love of casual bike rides on the Swamp Rabbit Trail in Greenville. The bike ride starts off at the Swamp Rabbit Café. During the cooler months, the ride starts at 10am and continues up to Travelers Rest for lunch and back to the starting point. During the warmer months, the ride starts at 9am and goes up to Travelers Rest and then we turn around and head back to the starting point for lunch (or downtown Greenville for lunch and ride back to the starting point). See the event postings for exact times and lunch for that ride. The Swamp Rabbit Trail is a paved former railroad bed, which makes for relatively smooth riding with no steep hills. If you like relaxing bike rides in a beautiful setting, Swamp Rabbit Casual Riders is for you! The plan is to have weekly rides weather permitting.
