Overview
The BODYARMOR Flash I.V. Bike to the 500 presented by Central Indiana Cycling returns for its 11th year, offering fans a fun and fast way to get to Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the 110th Running of the Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge.
The escorted, 5-mile Race Day ride starts at the AMP at 16 Tech. Uniformed officers and ride leaders are on hand to help guide participants of all ages. Riders can choose from two departure times, 7:30 am or 9:30 am, allowing the most loyal fans to arrive in time for prerace ceremonies. Bike to the 500 offers hassle-free monitored bike parking near the iconic Gate 1 entry of IMS.
“Bike to the 500 is a fun and unique way for our fans to travel to IMS on Race Day,” INDYCAR and IMS President J. Douglas Boles said. “When you have more than 350,000 fans heading in the same direction for ‘The Greatest Spectacle in Racing,’ biking is one of the fastest ways to get to the track, and it is a great way to enjoy the commute with fellow fans.”
The first 500 Bike to the 500 registrants will receive a Bike to the 500 branded cooling towel. Bike to the 500 benefits Central Indiana Cycling, an organization with the mission to get more people cycling through advocacy, education and opportunities to ride.
"Bike to the 500 has become another IMS Race Day tradition for many families,” Central Indiana Cycling Project Coordinator Tess Woods said. “It provides a safe and fun way for race fans to get to the Indianapolis 500, avoiding much of the traffic and congestion of Race Day. We encourage race fans to Bike to the 500, the fastest way to get to ‘The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.’”
This is the first year that BODYARMOR Flash I.V. is a sponsor of the Bike to the 500. Designed to deliver the latest in active hydration and functionality, BODYARMOR Flash I.V. offers consumers the ability to refuel, replenish and recover with more electrolytes than the competition.
