About D2R2
The Deerfield Dirt-Road Randonnee was conceived in the 1990's as just a favorite dirt-road loop in the hilltowns of Franklin County, Massachusetts. Since its birth as an organized event in 2005, many have hailed D2R2 as the hardest, most beautiful, most fun, most traffic-free, most unique, and overall best ride that they have ever done. However, D2R2 will continue to maintain its original character as just a bike ride –
The courses will use the narrowest, oldest, twistiest, quietest, and most-scenic roads available.
A range of courses will provide access to novices as well as challenge the world's strongest riders.
D2R2 will never offer prizes for anything other than gags, nor will finish results ever be presented like it was a race.
Riders shall cover the course in a self-sufficient manner, without motorized crew vehicles.
The organization will put as much effort into its food offerings as the routes
The event is a key fundraiser for the Franklin Land Trust's efforts to preserve land in the region.
QUESTIONS?
Registration & Franklin Land Trust questions: email Mary [email protected]

Who is the Franklin Land Trust (FLT)?
FLT is a 501(c)(3) devoted to the conservation of farm and forest land, and the rural character of western Massachusetts. FLT helps farmers and other landowners protect their land from unwanted development. To date, FLT has helped to preserve over 32,000 acres of open space. The hills and valleys of the region—with their farms, sugar bush, rambling old New England roads, and small towns steeped in history—are a unique and precious resource that D2R2 riders will experience at every turn in the road.
Contributions to the Franklin Land Trust allow us to continue our efforts to protect this invaluable resource and are tax-deductible.
