Silver Heist Walk/Run 5K
A historic town, a daring heist, and a race for silver—lace up and step into the Silver Heist Walk/Run 5K! Orwell, Vermont, was chartered in 1763 and has a rich history filled with resilience and community spirit. Among its earliest settlers was Deacon Ebenezer (Eber) Murray, who arrived in 1783. Known as the only man in town with a clock, Eber would blow a conch shell at 9 p.m. every evening to signal the time for evening prayers. In tribute to this tradition, the Silver Heist Walk/Run 5K will begin with the blast of a conch shell.
Our town is no stranger to bandit heists. In October 1862, just before the town fair, outlaws swept through Orwell, robbing several homes. Among those affected was Marcellus Royce, who lost $30 in silver to the thieves. The following year, in 1863, the First National Bank of Orwell was chartered, making it the oldest national bank in New England.Over its 162 years of dedicated service, the local Young family has managed it including the 5th generation and current bank manager, Bryan Young.
In this semisquicentennial of our nation's founding, we remember the Revolutionary War and the efforts of our founders to separate from King George III's oppresive rule with a wooden token "R" for participants. The fort at Mount Independence is located within the Town of Orwell. The Great Bridge, completed in 1777, crossed Lake Champlain and connected Mount Independence and Fort Ticonderoga. Built to move Revolutionary troops and supplies between Vermont and New York, it also discouraged British naval attacks to the south of the Fort. Of its 22 piers, the Orwell Historical Museum preserves a 9” section of one pier, found by Addison Kimball and donated by Orwell entrepreneur Fritz E. Lillie. Please stop in to our museum after the race to learn about our local participation in our nation's inception.
The wooden tokens collected from each year's race for the first six years will spell ORWELL.
The overall men's, women's, young man's and young women's winners will claim a custom award representing the $30 stolen from Marcellus Royce in 1862! Age division male and female winners will receive ribbons. Age groups are: 13+under, 14-16, 17-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75-79, 80-84, 85-89, 90-94, 95+up.
Whether you’re a seasoned runner or prefer a leisurely walk, the Silver Heist Walk/Run 5K welcomes participants of all paces. Step into history, embrace the thrill of the chase, and race through history on a dash for silver!
All in-person participants will take home a custom Silver Heist Walk/Run 5K T-shirt and the wooden token. Don’t miss these exclusive race-day rewards!
Little Bandits Bolt
For the youngest racers, the Little Bandits Bolt offers a pint-sized thrill! Kids will dash across the soccer field at Orwell Village School (OVS), sharing in the spirit of the Silver Heist as they race their way into local history. Every participant will receive a custom Silver Heist Walk/Run 5K T-shirt and a finisher’s token at the finish line—a special memento of the event’s historic theme.
The TAM Trek is a trail race and fun run to raise money for the Trail Around Middlebury (TAM) in Middlebury, VT. This trail is a19-mile long footpath, encircling the village of Middlebury and linking several hundred acres of town land, conserved properties, schools, and other local landmarks. All distances start and finish at Wright Park in Middlebury, Vermont.
The 19 mile race course travels the entire TAM through the towns of Middlebury, Cornwall, New Haven, and Weybridge, VT. The trail is scenic, rolling, and includes incredible views of the Green Mountains to the east and the Adirondacks to the west. 19-mile race departs at 7:30 AM.
The 10K course is entirely on single-track trail through Wright Park and the Otter Creek Gorge Loop (trail maps available at www.maltvt.org), with around 400 feet of elevation gain and several fairly technical sections. 10k race departs at 9 AM.
The 5K course is a challenging combination of wide and single track trail. It takes place entirely in Wright Park, looping from the southern entrance to Belden Falls and back. 5k race departs at 9:15 AM.
The 2 mile fun run is family-friendly and includes walkers and runners alike. The course follows Otter Creek and is entirely on trail.

Join us for our second Tour de Farms in and around Middlebury, this year with a family-friendly route! Enjoy panoramic views and beautiful back roads as you visit local farms in Middlebury, Weybridge, Cornwall, and Salisbury, Vermont. This scenic ride features several relaxed farm stops with multiple food producers who will offer you a taste of all the Champlain Valley has to offer! All samples are included in the ride, but cash is handy in case you'd like to purchase products along the way. Don't worry about carrying all of your goodies on the bike; we'll have a farm van to pick up your purchases and deliver them to the finish for you!
Much of the course is along dirt and/or gravel roads, so grab your gravel grinder or your mountain bike. If you've got a road bike, consider putting wider tires on it for this ride. It'll be worth it! E-bikes are welcome and encouraged as a comfortable option. Many Vermont libraries offer free E-bike rentals, and our local bike shop and tour sponsor, Frog Hollow Bikes, has a great rental fleet.
Commemorative t-shirts and bike jerseys are available for pre-sale!
There will be a rolling start time for all ride distances. 37 Mile riders will begin between 9:00 and 9:30 am, plan to check in between 8:30 am and 9:30 am. 8 Mile riders will begin between 10:00 and 10:30 am, and plan to check in between 8:30 am and 9:30 am. Inexperienced and slower riders should plan to leave as close to 9 am as possible to ensure they complete the route, which is a little longer than in previous years. We will send off several different waves of riders, so don't feel like you have to be first in line. Waves prevent farm stops from becoming overwhelmed and ensure proper road safety.
100% of the proceeds from the Tour fund our work at ACORN and directly support our local foodshed. Given the importance of this ride to our work with farmers and food producers in the Champlain Valley, we invite riders to fundraise or make an additional donation. This is in an effort to lean on our committed local network of supporters during this time of uncertain funding.
No One Turned Away for Lack of Funds. Please get in touch with us if you’d like a scholarship or to purchase a ticket on a sliding scale: [email protected].
Hosted at Paradox Brewery in North Hudson, the Handlebarley Gravel Weekend features two incredible fall days of mixed surface riding in the southern Adirondacks. Best part is you can sign up to ride just Saturday, only Sunday, or make it a full weekend.
Regardless of the number of days you choose to ride, you're guaranteed some awesome dirt, equally amazing views and a whole lot of fun. The main event will be Saturday this year with fabulous 43-mile mixed surface route where we venture east of the brewery to Ironville for a stop the Penfield Homestead Museum and then to Moriah for another rest stop at Hunter Way Farm before heading back to the brewery for a pizza and salad feast complete with live music. In between, you'll experience some of the finest paved and gravel backroads anywhere in the region. Sunday's ride is mid morning social cruise to stunning Elk Lake Lodge followed by post ride drinks at the brewery.
Need a teaser, check out this sweet video.
Dates: September 12-13
Location: North Hudson
Mileage: 20-44 miles

Rider Experiences
"This is the most fun I've had on my bike in a long time! Loved the roller coaster ride from the last rest stop to the end!"
"The Handlebarley is one of my must attend bike rides every fall. The scenery is spectacular and BikeADK organizes the event for the enjoyment of all riders."
"I just got done with the Handlebarley for the first time - what a GREAT event! Everything (support, SAG, food, water, etc) was in place and ready to go, and the BikeADK team was friendly, helpful and great to work with. I'll be back next year and we're already looking for other BikeADK events to join as well!"
"The Handlebarley was challenging, beautiful, incredibly well-organized. Everything about it was a delight -- great support team (thanks for all the encouragement, Roadies!), just the right refueling options along the ride and at the finish, nice fellow-riders. Getting to know Elk Lake Lodge and the Penfield Homestead Museum was an added bonus. Would definitely sign on for more events with BikeADK. Thanks for a great weekend!"
