Online registration closes at 9 p.m. Sept. 30. Fees go up another $10 for day-of-ride registration.
Bicycle around the Quabbin Reservoir, a pristine jewel in the heart of Massachusetts. Choose from two road routes (64 or 101 miles) or two gravel routes (approximately 44 or 77 miles, each approximately half paved). Not much traffic; plenty of hills.
Start/finish for all routes is at Hardwick Winery, 3305 Greenwich Road, Hardwick, MA 01082. Check-in opens at 6:45 a.m. Start times are flexible, but we recommend century riders and gravel riders start 7:00-8:00 a.m., and road metric riders start 8:00-9:00 a.m. All routes except the Road Metric will stop at Petersham Common.
Routes will not be arrowed. Routes will be scouted prior to the event for road/trail conditions and may be modified accordingly. Final Ride with GPS links will be emailed to online registrants the week before the ride.
Road metric (64 miles, approx. 5000 feet of climbing)
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/48772978
Rest stops at mile 27 (Palmer, 8:30 a.m.-noon) and 50 (Farmer Matt in New Braintree, 10 a.m.-2:30 p.m.).
Road century (101 miles, 6000+ feet of climbing)
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/54352628

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/54352606
Rest stop at mile 29 (Petersham Common, 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.)
The gravel routes avoid DCR trails. On the Little Gravel route, there's an option at mile 40 to do an easy finish (remainder of route is mostly paved, and the route totals 43 miles) or a hard finish (remainder of route is unpaved, with nearly 300 feet more climbing, and the route totals 45 miles).
Not sure which route is for you? Not to worry -- you can change your selection online at any time before registration closes. You can even wait until ride day and decide in the middle of the ride. Both road routes are the same until the Quabbin Visitor Center, at mile 18. Both gravel routes go to the Petersham rest stop at mile 28. So whether you're on the road or the gravel, you can decide partway how to continue.
Limited to 150 riders.
Refreshments afterwards at Hardwick Winery, with a food truck for the afternoon.
