About Bike Belmont

Last year, Bike Belmont welcomed 300 riders, including Liberty Township trustees, the Mayor of Youngstown, members of Youngstown City Council, and residents from Liberty, Youngstown, and neighboring communities. Local business owners contributed water, biking supplies, snacks, and encouragement along the route, and the event received strong media coverage.

This year, we anticipate 500 riders as Bike Belmont continues to grow into a premier community event promoting health, connection, and neighborhood pride. We are grateful for the support of local cycling groups, including Outspoken Wheelmen, CycWard, YoGo Bikeshare, and Cruise the Creek.

Thank you to our sponsors!
