Decorate your bike, wear yellow and join other daffy riders for an easy 4-mile ride to view over 1,300,000 daffodils that will be in bloom throughout Newport, ending at Ballard Park where over 20,000 will greet us. Prize for the best decorated bike and daffiest outfit!
The ride will include an exclusive stop at the magnificent private gardens of Bellevue House where thousands of daffodils will be in bloom. There will also be an exciting addition this year, the ‘I Scream For Ice Cream’ Social. When we make a stop at the bright yellow daffodil field on the campus of Salve Regina outside of McAuley Hall, we can walk over to take photos and then scream “daffy” for ice cream, compliments of Daffy Days and Salve Regina, (donations welcome). Fun!
Or you can make your own Daffodil bike ride any day, any time. The daffodillion daffies are all over the city and will be in bloom for several weeks.
Go ahead and get daffy! We’d love to see you in your daffodillion best, be sure to tag us on social media @bikenewportri
