All gravel segments will be New Strava segments with entrants times posting after the race. Awards will be given for winners for the OA finish in each catagory.

Or you can make a donation to the Whitin Community Center www.whitincommunitycenter.com. This is a completely Non-Profit event to give back to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our FREEDOM!
The GPS track is provided. It follows the entire NS trail from Douglas, MA 78 miles to Blue Shutters Beach in Charlestown, RI. The Buck Hill section is “by passed” because it’s unridable. Everything on the Track can be ridden by a skilled rider. There is a mix of road, gravel, cart roads, single track and some short “hike a bike” sections. Any bike Gravel or Mountain Bike with no wider than 2.1 tires will be a good choice to best manage the course. The woods are pretty buggy so, bring bug repellent.
The best plan is to have your Family spend the day at Blue Shutters Beach in Charlestown, RI where the ride Finished. Changing and shower facilities are available at the Beach. You do need to pay for a day beach pass but, after 5 PM entry is free. I anticipate a finish around 4 PM.

Sloppy Jon’s 2026
Sloppy Jon’s is a community-focused, mixed-surface ride hosted by It’s Just A Hill. This is not a race. There is no podium. It is a social ride built around challenging routes, good company, and bringing people together through bikes.
Start Location (New for 2026)
Sloppy Jon’s will start and finish at the Woody Lowden Recreation Center in Foster, RI.
After three years of rolling out from Jon’s house, the event is taking a small step forward and using a proper start location. This gives us more space, better parking, and a smoother day for everyone while keeping the same community-first feel.
Please respect the recreation center, property, and neighbors. We want to be invited back.
Registration & Capacity
Sloppy Jon’s is a free event. We do not want money to be a barrier to entry or participation.
Registration is limited to 150 riders. Please only sign up if you genuinely plan to attend. If your plans change, we ask that you withdraw your registration so someone on the waitlist can take your spot.
A waitlist will be enabled once the event fills. If space opens up, riders will be admitted in the order they joined the waitlist. We appreciate everyone helping keep this fair and accessible for the whole community.
Routes & Support
There will be five total route options, consistent with previous years, including multiple gravel routes and paved options.
All gravel routes will pass the IJAH x NBX rest stop, with hydration and snacks provided by those organizations. Some routes will also pass classic local general stores, including Oneco Market. Additional route details, distances, and elevation will be shared closer to the event.
This is a mostly self-supported ride. Riders are responsible for navigation, hydration, nutrition, and mechanical support. That said, all routes will include opportunities to stop at convenience stores along the way.
Route changes will be allowed prior to the event, pending availability.
Event Support
Putting Sloppy Jon’s together does come with real costs. Renting the race center, providing ride snacks, and covering basic logistics all add up. We believe the time and money spent are worth it for the local cycling community, and optional donations help make that possible.
If you are able to contribute, thank you. If not, no problem at all. Show up, ride your bike, and be part of it.
Post-Ride
After the ride, everyone is invited to stick around for a post-ride potluck, featuring signature Sloppy Joe sandwiches and dirt cups for dessert.
Event Details
Routes, timing, and final details will be shared closer to the event date via Strava and the It’s Just A Hill channels.
Welcome to Race Day XC. We are thrilled to introduce the Rotation Engineering Berkshire 40. The original Race Day XC marathon! The Berkshire 40 is located on a beautiful 1000 acre farm in the Berkshires. The race lap is a 10 mile loop of mostly single track, with a few sections of double track and a small stretch of private dirt road. No dangerous public roads, no multi use public trails, this closed course loop was 100% cut and built for the Berkshire 40 event.
The single track is premium packed Berkshire loam with tons of flow. Although this property abuts Mt Greylock there isn't a ton of “climbs” that are notable. We have built a lot of trails over the years but this stuff is some of our favorite of all time! We will share the final gps/strava file the week before the event.
For a look at the old 2025 Strava course profile click here: 2025 Berkshire 40 Lap
Parking Fee: $20 Per Carload per Weekend
Primitive Camping Fee: $25 Per Car Load (Good All Weekend)

The official feed zone/aid station will be in the parking area. You will pass through it at miles 10, 20 and 30. We will also have basic refreshments at the aid station.

Pro Men: $1000

DIRTY PIZZA WEEKEND 2026
[dp2319 2.JPG]
On tap is a full weekend of food, bikes and camaraderie that you'll not soon forget.
We've pulled the best bits of local riding together into these loops and we can't wait to share them with you. The routes feature panoramic views across the river valley into Vermont, quiet rolling gravel roads, no shortage of leg busting climbs and honestly, some of the best riding anywhere in the surrounding three states.
Saturday:
Shake out ride.
Swim in the lake.
Wood fired feast at the pavilion
Camping on site.
Sunday:
Complementary fresh baked goods and coffee.
FOUR routes to choose from.
“The Good” If you love the original Dirty Pizza route, +/- 40 miles, +/- 4500' elevation, this route is the one for you.
“The Bad” If you've been riding gravel events for awhile, finished last year's ride and were up for more, “The bad” is a tough 55 miles with 6,000' elevation, should be enough to have most riders seeing cross eyed and wishing they'd opted for a shorter route.
“The ugly” This 70 mile loop with 8,000' of elevation monster…. is savage. It will also be restricted to a field of 30 riders, and will have a time cut off at the first time through the feed zone.
"Type 1 fun" A mostly paved ride with a few miles of maintained gravel road. 24 miles, 2,500" elevation. Suitable for a confident rider on 30mm tires.
A staffed feed stop for all three ride options. This stop will be stocked with water, fruit, and the famous Orchard Hill Breadworks cookies!
Post ride pizza and dessert for all riders. (Eat up, we're not counting how many slices you take)
Want to bring the family and enjoy an early fall day with bikes and wood fired pizza? Sign up for “Just pizza” and we'll gladly share some family friendly shorter loops suitable for all ability levels.
The Courses are SELF NAVIGATED. We like arrows, but we share these roads and trails with a wide variety of users. It has become apparent that not all non-bikers share that like! Conclusion: no arrows are better than wrong arrows! The GPS track and cue sheets will be emailed a day or two before the event as well.
Everyone riding the Dirty Pizza is strongly encouraged to ride with a navigation device (links shared 3 days prior to event). Cue sheets will also be available.
To some, the most important feature of the day is the Post Ride Feed where you will be treated to Noah's wood oven fired pizza feast back at the Orchard Hill Pavillion.
WHAT TO BRING…
Good, Bad and Ugly will all best be tackled on 42mm or larger tires.
Type 1 fun can be ridden on a narrower tire, but you'll still be happy riding a cushy 42mm gravel set up.
This ride is self supported. Bring your own gear to change flats and make minor repairs.
Sag support will be available "On Call", but in some sections of the course that will mean walking a bit to get cell reception and or access to a road.
The pizza feast will consist of wood fired pizza with a variety of toppings. Gluten free crusts available.

The race course — which rises between 300-400 feet in elevation throughout the entire race — features views and scenery that capture perfectly the quaint, authentic feel of New England, taking runners through covered bridges with names like Thompson, Carlton and Cresson, most of which date to the pre-Civil War era.
The Swanzey Covered Bridges Half-Marathon, "Elijah's Race", is held each year in memory of its founder, Elijah Barrett. Elijah organized the event to raise funds to support the students of Monadnock Regional Middle-High School. He had attended MRMHS and eventually coached runners there.

The Marlowe Foundation empowers people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to be proud and confident to be themselves. Opportunity to thrive is a human right and that will always be the foundation from which we build. Our hope is to one day live in a society that sees no boundaries for people living with IDD and to witness a change in those perceptions. The Marlowe Foundation’s vision is to help influence that change, even if change comes one person at a time. We will identify and partner with other non-profits that align with that mission so that these organizations are given support through financial grants that can help make their goals attainable.
