2026 QUIET CORNER BIKE TOUR
PRESENTED BY THE THREAD CITY CYCLERS
All routes will be similar to last year with any updates posted as available. Choose your own adventure while cycling Eastern Connecticut's country roads on a fully supported ride. Our century route will still take you through the scenic turns at Devil's Hopyard State Park, and then turn north to explore more of the Quiet Corner with an opportunity for ice cream at Wi-Li-Kit at the last rest stop. You may also choose from routes of 64, 40, 20 miles, or an 18 or 34 mile gravel loop. There will be portable chemical toilets at every rest stop. Enjoy stunning roads, friendly faces, and more-than-enough great food along the way. Half of the proceeds will go for cycling advocacy to support and improve our local trails and youth cycling.
100 Mile Century
No current plans to change this years century route that will still take you through the scenic turns at Devil's Hopyard State Park, and then turn north to explore more of the Quiet Corner with an opportunity for ice cream at Wi-Li-Kit at the last rest stop. You will also have the option to stop at three other rest stops to fill your water bottle, have some packaged sweet or salty snacks, home baked treats, fruit, and a few other things for cyclists.
64 Mile
The 64 mile ride heads out the same way as the longer routes, taking a turn in Colchester to link up again with the return to Chaplin. You will visit three of the rest stops used on the longer routes.
40 Mile
The 40 mile ride will head out to the rest stop in Baltic where it joins the other routes on the return to the park. Two rest stops on this route to make sure you have enough fuel to get you to the finish.
20 Mile
The 20 mile route will have one rest stop that is shared with the other routes. The 20 mile ride will be the shortest route heading out and returning on the same roads as our longer rides
18 Mile Gravel Loop
The 18 mile gravel loop will be using about 8 miles of the Air Line Trail with one rest stop.
34 Mile Gravel Loop
The 34 mile gravel loop with two rest stops was added last year and one of the most popular rides.

FOOD, REST STOPS, & ROUTE SUPPORT
We have overstocked rest stops and abundant food after the ride. All ride lengths will have stops stocked with plenty of packaged sweet and salty choices, home baked goodies, fruit, water, and sports drink. When you return to the park we will have a variety of offerings to make a fresh sandwich with some salads, chips, and fruits before you head home. All included with the price of the ride. You won’t go hungry! On call support will be provided for anyone needing transport back to the start / finish at the park. Half of the proceeds will go for trail advocacy to support and improve our local trails and youth cycling education.
The towns have asked us to not paint route markings on the road so we will not be marking the roads this year. You will be able to download Ride with GPS routes and cue sheets for all rides will be available at morning check in.

This is a track riding and racing clinic for riders who are not familiar with riding a fixed gear or riding on a velodrome. Track racing has some peculiarities that make it a little different from road riding or racing. This clinic will give you the knowledge and experience necessary to begin track riding at the Northeast Velodrome.
The course consists of 3 sets of skills:
Getting started and stopping on a fixed gear bike
Spinning and controlling your speed with your pedals instead of brakes
Practice riding close to another rider
Learning to hold a line while continuing to pedal through
Learning how it feels to use the banking and the turns
The terminology of the track lanes
How to move and communicate with the other riders on the track
Learning how to use the turns and the banking of the track to form and hold a pace line
Taking a turn on the front and then moving out and up and back to take a place at the back
Learning race rules for various track events
At the end you will have the knowledge and some experience of track riding. You will understand how riding a fixed gear on a track differs from road or mountain riding with a freewheel and brakes.
The course fee includes rental of a track bike if needed. If you are renting you need to bring pedals and shoes. A helmet is required. Please indicate your frame size, and if you know it your saddle height, measured from the center of the crank axle to the top of the saddle. This is not required but will aid in preparing the bike and speeding the sizing process.
Price: $30 - Field limit of 8. Rental is included. Successful completion of this course certifies you to ride any other events at the Northeast Velodrome.
