Unrouted

Embark on an adventurous checkpoint-style bike ride through the picturesque landscapes of Chittenden County this November 1st. Organized by Jericho Dirt, inspired by LA Tourist events from Southern California, this unique challenge invites cyclists to explore a series of hidden gems across the region.
A few days before the event, participants will receive GPS coordinates and clues for various checkpoints scattered throughout Chittenden County. At each checkpoint, riders must locate a book and tear out the page that corresponds with their registration number. Once all pages are collected, they return them to the finish line along with their finishing time. The beauty of this ride lies in its flexibility: choose any route you like to connect the checkpoints in your preferred order.
The event offers both long and short options, catering to different levels of experience and stamina. Riders opting for the longer journey can expect a distance range of 55-75 miles, while those seeking a more manageable challenge will enjoy a shorter course spanning approximately 25-40 miles. The checkpoints themselves vary in terrain preferences, with some favoring road bikes, others gravel bikes, and a couple that might call for mountain bikes.
The key to success is choosing the right bike and route based on personal skill sets and comfort levels. Whether you decide to pedal through scenic detours or stick to your favorite shortcuts, remember to follow all laws and respect private property, trail closures, and road restrictions along the way.
Join fellow cyclists in discovering some of Chittenden County’s most captivating spots as you weave together an unforgettable adventure ride on November 1st. Whether riding solo or with a group, this event promises an engaging blend of exploration, challenge, and camaraderie.
Riders are encouraged to embrace the freedom of choice that comes with planning their own route and selecting the perfect bike for the terrain they'll encounter, making each participant's experience unique and memorable.
