The Dirt

Experience the serene beauty of Vermont's Waterbury Village Historic District on November 9th, as Bicycle Express invites you to join their annual end-of-season gravel ride. This unique cycling adventure is not about competition but pure enjoyment and camaraderie. Participants will embark at 10 AM from Bicycle Express, located at 23 Commercial Dr in the heart of Waterbury Village Historic District.
The route offers a picturesque journey along River Road for approximately 19 miles, with the option to shorten it according to your comfort level. For those seeking an extended challenge and prepared for wet conditions, there’s also a longer course spanning 31 miles. Both routes promise breathtaking views and a memorable ride through Vermont's fall foliage.
Post-ride, enjoy a hearty meal provided by Bicycle Express as you mingle with fellow cyclists in the cozy atmosphere of this historic village. The event is dedicated to raising funds for the Vermont Foodbank, making your participation not just fun but also rewarding. Entry fees are $45 per participant; the cost includes insurance and refreshments after the ride, while all remaining proceeds will be donated.
Don’t forget to equip yourself with a red flashing taillight for added visibility on this autumnal adventure. Follow local road rules to ensure everyone’s safety and have an enjoyable experience.
Ride with us to support a great cause and celebrate another season of cycling in Vermont!
