From big races to Saturday morning group runs—find gravel events and connect with the local endurance sports community.
Overview Join us Saturday, June 20th, 2026 for the fourth installment of Detoor! This year, Detoor will continue to support riders who race the clock, those who stop and smell the roses, and everyone in between. The start/finish and afterparty will take place at 124 School Street, East Fairfield, VT. Your $32 entry includes aid stations and wood-fired pizza made on-site by the Fairfield Community Center. Frost Beer Works will have beverages available for purchase. This event is hosted by people who spend most of their time doing business, doctoring, researching, and studying, so give us some grace and enjoy this opportunity to ride bikes on exceptional dirt roads. There is a strict field limit for safety, so sign up early and do not hesitate to reach out with questions. Whatever route you choose to take, we hope to see you there! Format and Terrain Each distance (35 and 75 miles) will be split into waves of racers and riders. Each route will feature quiet dirt roads and plenty of climbs.
The long course includes several unmaintained (Class 4) sections. We recommend using a bike with tires >35mm in width. You are responsible for your safety. If you can’t ride it, walk it. The courses cover vast territories and there are plenty of kids ready to spin arrows and cause chaos. As such, ROUTES ARE NOT MARKED. All riders should be able to self navigate with GPS routes or cue sheets. The routes: TBD. Anticipate very similar routes to last year. See videos from Tim Putnam and Ted King for a preview. Aid Stations There will be a comprehensive aid station at 54 East Bakersfield Road in Bakersfield with UnTapped products, several food options, water and hydration mix. There will be an additional water-only table on the long course. Refunds We are a small event with an even smaller budget. No refunds will be issued. You can always transfer your registration to someone else using BikeReg.
