THE 2026 GRAVEL GOBLIN IS ON!! We're getting in one more trick-or-treat ride the day after Halloween.
Sign up and ride with the Mohawk Hudson Cycling Club on Columbia County's magnificent gravel roads. See the stunning autumn colors from the beautiful heights and rural valleys of this great gravel riding area. MHCC members and other cycling enthusiasts ride here all year and keep coming back for more. PLUS, the first 150 who visit the registration desk will enjoy a sweet surprise treat from Bountiful Bread!! The four routes offer a full variety of ride types and challenges. Everyone can find the ride that's right! A rest stop will be provided at the Red Rock Volunteer Fire Department for the 56 and 41 mile routes. So you will have a place to rest and refuel before continuing your tour. Note: all participants are required to follow rules of the road for cycling and to wear a helmet. As a safety tactic, each gravel ride will have a controlled, neutral start for the first mile. More safety requirements and tip are attached to your waiver.
Please remember to download your chosen route to an on-board device or print out a cue sheet before you show up!
BONUS: There will be mechanical support onsite prior to the ride, courtesy of Karl Miller's Blueline Spokes & Gears.
Make an additional donation online and/or come with a check, payable to Regional Food Bank of Northeastern NY.
