Mountain Biking
Roanoke Mountain
Adventures has the
wheels.

for several years now,
Roanoke has marketed itself as
the premier East Coast mountain
adventure town, thanks, in large
part, to Pete Eshelman and the
RoanokeOutside.com franchise.
While thousands of visitors come
to the city annually for events like
the Blue Ridge Marathon and GO
Fest, other natural playgrounds
like Carvins Cove, the Roanoke
River and the Appalachian Trail
attract thousands more. James
Revercomb, along with his father
Jim, foresaw a perfect business
opportunity for those visitors: a
service that not only rents mounTheRoanoker.com

tain bikes, kayaks, and stand-up
paddleboards (SUPs) to locals and
visitors, but also provides shuttles
to the various parks and natural
resources.
Nestled in the River House complex in Wasena, Roanoke Mountain Adventures (RMA) is geared
toward "making public land accessible for visitors and residents
alike," as Revercomb explains, and
offers four kinds of bikes (mountain-hardtail and full suspension-road, and greenway-specific), inflatable SUPs, kayaks,
and tubes for rent. It also offers
shuttles from hotels to Carvins
