The ROC ‘n Roll

Thank you to all who joined our 4th Annual ROC ‘n Roll fundraising ride on Sunday, June 1st, 2025! Your support fuels Reconnect Rochester’s work to champion transportation choices in Monroe County.

Save the date for our 5th ROC ‘n Roll on Sunday, May 31st, 2026!

The ROC ‘n Roll is our annual fundraising bike ride. We host two different ride options followed by an after party with food, live music, and raffle prizes. The 8-mile ride is a family-friendly, casual route that features the traffic-free Riverway Trail. The 30-mile ride is a mix of bike paths, bike lanes, and bike boulevards — and will probably take you places you’ve never seen in Rochester on a bike! Pick the ride that best fits with your riding style or you can attend just the after party.

“I loved street riding in a way that felt safe. It was so fun to experience our gorgeous city from that vantage.”

“Riding a type of ride I never do. It was very eye-opening to see all the cycling infrastructure in the city. I had no clue.”

Meet us at Rohrbach Brewing Company’s Beer Hall on Railroad Street, where this year’s ROC ‘n Roll will begin and end. The ride is rain or shine but the after party will be inside if it rains.

The 8-mile ride is a family-friendly, casual route that features the traffic-free Riverway Trail. Check-in starts at 10:00 AM. Kickstands up at 10:30 AM.

The 30-mile ride is a mix of bike paths, bike lanes, and bike boulevards — and will probably take you places you’ve never seen in Rochester on a bike! Check-in starts at 8:30 AM. Kickstands up at 9:00 AM.
