Supply chain issues have delayed the opening of a second entrance to Arthur Ravenel Jr. bridge's protected lanes for walkers, runners and cyclists until early 2025.

Improvements aimed at making the Charleston end of the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge safer for pedestrians are half complete.

"A new bike allows children to feel included and build friendships with others in the neighborhood," said Master Patrol Officer Lisa Bousquet.

Dear BASC Community,

We know how much many of you were looking forward to our upcoming Bicycle Across South Carolina (BASC) event this weekend, October 10-14, 2024. We regret we must cancel BASC, due to extensive damage caused by Hurricane Helene in Edgefield, SC, and surrounding areas. After careful evaluation, we cannot ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants.

We understand this news is disappointing, and we share in your disappointment.

As many of you know, BASC is hosted by The Post and Courier, a family-owned newspaper committed to serving the South Carolina community. We organize this event to help fund our journalism, providing neighbors with the information they need to stay informed and engaged.

Our thoughts are with our neighbors in the affected areas as they navigate the challenges brought by Hurricane Helene.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and thank you for your continued support of BASC and local journalism.

🚨IMPORTANT UPDATE 🚨

We know how much you’ve been looking forward to our upcoming Bicycle Across South Carolina (BASC) event on October 10-14, 2024. Today, we’re reaching out with an important update that may affect BASC.

Hurricane Helene has caused damage in Edgefield, SC, and surrounding areas, including our planned routes and our basecamp at Hickory Hill Farms. Our team is actively evaluating the condition of the paths and roads in the affected areas. We’re working to best understand the full impact and what it means for our ride.

The safety of our riders, our staff and the entire BASC community is our top priority. We’re thinking about you, your experiences and how to make this event both safe and memorable.

As soon as we have a clear picture of the situation, we’ll be in touch again with more details. We sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. Our thoughts are with our neighbors in the affected areas as they navigate the challenges brought by Helene.

Thank you for your continued support of Bicycle Across South Carolina.

Bicycle Across South Carolina is a rain or shine event. As long as it is safe for us to ride, we will! Routes may shift slightly, or we can cut short in case of bad weather, but unless it's hurricane-like weather, we will hold the ride as scheduled.
