8th on 8th Returns for a Chill Ride and 5-Year Vibes

Okay, this one’s a crowd favorite—and it’s finally making a comeback! After a bit of a break (babies, life, the usual), Bike Shop Joe’s is rolling back in with their beloved “8th on 8th” social ride. It’s slow, it’s chill, it’s all greenway—and it’s happening just for June to celebrate 5 years of this sweet community ride.

The Deets:

📍Where: Starts and ends at Bike Shop Joe’s, 1206 SE Moberly Ln, Suite 14, Bentonville, AR
📅 When: Saturday, June 8
🕔 Time: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM
🛞 Ride Distance: 8 miles total
💲Cost: Free & open to the public

What’s Happening:

Here’s the ride plan: meet up at Bike Shop Joe’s, pedal at a laid-back pace down the greenway to 8th Street Market, chill for a bit (grab a bite, snap a pic, vibe with the crew), then head back to the shop. No drop, all levels welcome, 100% greenway the whole way.

It’s their 5-year anniversary of doing this ride, so it’s got extra celebration energy baked in. Whether you’re rolling with your kids, your friends, or just tagging along solo, it’s all about showing up and enjoying the Bentonville trail life with good people.
