Event details
The date for the next Cherohala Challenge® is June 3, 2023!
The Smoky Mountain Wheelmen proudly present the 21st Edition of the Cherohala Challenge®. The 2023 Date is JUNE 3!
The event offers three distinctive rides so almost anyone can find a ride that will fit their skill level with rides of 35, 62 and 115 miles.
Don’t miss your opportunity to ride the famed Dragon Slayer, the Cherohala Skyway and surrounding region. The 115-mile route is a route that cannot normally be done without the support of an organized ride. We supply SAG Support, Well-Stocked Rest Stops, Short-Wave Radio Support (cell phones do not work on most of the ride) and Private Restrooms.
The Wheelmen are proud of our legacy and want you to come experience one of the Southeast’s premier rides! Start training now to SLAY THE DRAGON!
