Velo Vermont Spring Roll 2017



Join Velo Vermont for our second annual Spring Roll on May 21st 2017; It's more than a ride, but less than a race, and it's mostly gravel.

No entrance fee, no frills, some beers stashed in the woods, and a good tough early season ride with friends, not 600 goobers with carbon wonder-bikes that don't know how to shift.  This is not a vintage ride, don't bring your corn-cob bikes with dry-rotted sew-ups.
Expect a fun casual vibe, some modest food and drink fare, warm sun and/or cold rain, and some classic Vermont backroads.  
Nutty and Chased, Chandler, to Northfield Gentrified Store, lots of Lover's lanes, and a dance with the Devil in the Washbowl.
Leaves from Middle Ground (behind RedHen Bakery & Nutty Steph's) in Middlesex, Vermont. May 21st.
We hope to see you there.

True Love

Velo Vermont challenges you to step/roll out of your comfort zone and into Spring.....We present you the Velo Vermont Spring Roll! Sunday, May 21st 2017, from Middle Grounds in Middlesex, Vermont. (Behind RedHen Bakery and Nutty Steph's).

This isn't going to be your toughest Gravel Grinder, this isn't going to be the latest, greatest, biggest bike event, or slickest century ride, don't bring Stravaganza or your Powermeter, don't expect fully stocked aid stations.....
Instead,.... 
There might be Spring Rolls, it's going to be hard, there might be Chocolate, probably some flat tires, and for sure lots of steep, gnarly uphills and fun downhills.
Nutty and Chased, Chandler, to Northfield Gentrified Store, lots of Lover's lanes, and a dance with the Devil in the Washbowl. Just like a good Punk Rock concert, and a little bit of history, maybe a lemonade stand along the way...
You don't need a vintage bike for this, but bring it if it's your favorite. Bring what you love! Put on your wolf suit. Let the walls become the world all around you. 

Stay tuned for more details.
