Save the Date: August Bike Events

Last Updated: 28.Apr.2016

Two events to get on your radar:  August 6th's EFTA Mountain Bike Race, and August 20th's Backroad Bike Tour as part of Kingdom Farm and Food Days.

EFTA Mountain Bike Race:
We're excited to be hosting the Eastern Fat Tire Association Summer Epic for the third year in a row! We've had a blast the past several years (check out the videos) and are looking forward to another round. Every year, we continue to build more singletrack, and this year has been no exception, with several new sections of singletrack built after 2015's race, and more in process this spring to be added into the 2016 version. Read more.

Kingdom Farm and Food Backroads Bike Tour:
As part of Kingdom Farm and Food Days' celebration of local food and our rich community of farmers and producers, we’ll be organizing a backroad bike ride. The vast majority of the roads around the Kingdom remain unpaved, and there’s few better ways to explore them and the countryside than from the seat of a bicycle. Cyclists will enjoy a scenic ride from Craftsbury thru the rolling farms and fields to Greensboro where we’ll quench our thirst at Hill Farmstead – and best of all, riders will enjoy a shuttle ride back to the start. More details to come!
