On the Capital Trail

 

The 2025 Cap2Cap ride presented by Dominion Energy will use an Open-Start format in 2025: you can start and finish anywhere on the Virginia Capital Trail!  Course support (Rest Stops and SAG) will be active between 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM on the Trail on Cap2Cap weekend, Friday, May 9th and Saturday, May 10th.

When planning your ride, consider the location and time of the Party Zone, which is the only place you will be able to redeem your lunch and drink ticket.

Your Ride Day Choice Determines Your Party Zone
Whichever Ride Day you select during registration, and only on that day, the tickets attached to your bib will be good for lunch and a beverage at the corresponding Party Zone site.
