Ride Details


Who: Anybody with any inclination, whatsoever, to ride a vintage road bicycle for the sake of riding a vintage road bicycle.

What: A casually paced ride (approximately 30 miles long) on an only slightly hilly route. It will start and end on the scenic route 100B. There will be some riding on dirt roads.

Where: Middle Ground in Middlesex, Vermont. It's right on Rt. 2, west of Montpelier, east of Waterbury.  Exit 9 off Interstate-89. We will congregate somewhere behind the Red Hen Bakery.

When: Sunday May 15th.11:00 am.

This is a free ride, and as of now, uninsured. As such, liability waivers will be required.  Not required, is a suggested donation of $20 dollars or so. We will have some very nice t-shirts made, and we will have food, Red Hen sandwiches and drink in some capacity. We have to see what we can get insofar as sponsors.  

We hope to have some version of a 'swap meet' after the ride. Bring any sort of neat old stuff you might be interested in selling or trading.  

Also, as far as equipment requirements, we have none. Yes, these events are inspired by racing bicycles pre-1990 or so. No, we won't turn you away for not having a bike that checks all the boxes (I'm looking at you L'Eroica). Bring what you've got in the garage. Ideally, that's a steel road bike with friction shifters.

Be there or be square.

Cheers,

and true love,
