Bike for the Lake
Each summer, the Friends of Northern Lake Champlain hosts Bike for the Lake, a cycling and e-bike fundraiser supporting clean water initiatives. This year marks our 15th ride, and this beloved local event continues to be a highlight of kicking off summer in Vermont!
Increased rain and storm events throughout the region underscore the urgent need to protect Lake Champlain from both extreme weather and runoff from the land. Friends of Northern Lake Champlain is on the ground, actively working to improve water quality for generations to come and your support at this event truly makes a difference.
Routes span the beautiful shores of the northern lake, winding through Vermont’s scenic islands and along the New York coast. When you return from your ride, you can kick back and enjoy some music, a beer, and a delicious lunch!
