RideBHM is a privately-operated mountain biking attraction at Red Mountain Park , accessed from 2800 Portofino Drive, off Lakeshore Parkway in Birmingham's Oxmoor neighborhood. The property is owned by the Red Mountain Greenway and Recreational Area Commission and leased to Ride Resorts, a company founded in 2020 by Emile Hughes. Pisgah Trail Company of Hendersonville, North Carolina and Dialed Dirt of South Carolina constructed the trails.

The business, which opened in November 2022, offers memberships and day passes for access to a network of mountain biking trails, along with bike and e-bike rentals and instruction. Future plans for the attraction include overnight camping and a second area location.
