Gus' Ride, Race and Event Guide
Check this page often for Gus' updated listings of all types of cycling events in and around New Hampshire and New England. Scroll down for info on shop, fun, road, tri, cyclocross or mountain bike rides/races. Rides require, at minimum, an appropriate bike in good working order, water, and a helmet. We suggest a spare tube, energy food, maybe a little cash in case we stop, and your biggest smile! Many rides are held subject to weather. It's a good idea to confirm dates, time and any specific requirements, too. We'll see you out there — and have fun!

Craftsbury Outdoor Center, Craftsbury,VT |
Lamoille – say it like a local, “lah-moyl” – rhymes with olive oil. Got it? We’ll again have both long and shorter routes, stout climbing on quintessential Vermont gravel, a hearty group of riders and an incredible after party. This is one ride you won’t want to miss. |

Café One East - 1 E. Main St, Warner NH |
The Kearsarge Klassic is, indeed, a gravel riding classic. Launched in 2012 the reins were handed over to GRVL Cycling in 2019. Now based out of the the quaint town of Warner NH the ride includes many of the same roads legacy riders have come to love. We offer challenging routes that includes a significant amount of packed-gravel riding and, to test your mettle, some climbing segments. The event is not timed, this is not a race. A properly prepared rider and a gravel bike of most any type can do this. Our guarantee – you will finish tired but feeling accomplished. At the finish, riders will be treated to a delicious meal and craft beer. |
