The annual 10-Spot Ride on Saturday, August 24th, 2024, was a thrilling celebration of bikes, the local community, music, delicacies, and more! We welcomed 300 guests on bikes to a variety of properties from downtown patios to a harborside dock, from swinging hammocks and a labyrinth to a majestic oceanfront mansion, from the colonial to brand-spanking-new. Amazing local musicians charmed and serenaded for all five hours, and the array of sips and tastes from Newport’s most generous chefs and restaurants delighted palettes all day long. The day captured and offered the splendid variety that defines Newport!
