Regional Cycling Events

The north east is an amazing backdrop for XC MTB racing…. We have the mountains, we have the dirt, the forest cover and a dense population with thousands of passionate cyclists. What we don’t have is a consistent XC series or a unified cross country racing community. As a veteran promoter and a dedicated racer, that is a challenge that has intrigued me for years. I am proud and ready to accept that challenge. 

We are excited to return to the “rock pile” for the 53st Mt. Washington Auto Road Bicycle Hillclimb (MWARBH) presented by Tin Mountain Conservation Center! Tin Mountain Conservation Center is a non profit which provides opportunities to experience nature as the ultimate classroom.

In fact, this summer you have two opportunities to pedal to the top of Mt. Washington!  These event notes are for the main event, the supported, timed, exciting, and not-to-miss festival.

GREEN MOUNTAIN STAGE RACE – The largest stage race in North America in 2023

Thank you for your interest in the Green Mountain Stage Race. In 2023 the GMSR was the largest stage race in North America! Velo has selected the GMSR as one of the top ten stage races in the US two years in a row! Come experience what it is like to be treated like a Pro regardless of your catagory. This will be the twenty-fifth edition of the GMSR! We hope you can join us.

We are excited to announce that we are planning to host two half-day clinics for adults who are interested in learning more about mountain biking. The clinics will run from 9 am to 12 pm with lots of hands-on learning led by Stuart Lander, our Gear Shifters leader. There will be options for a trail ride experience to work on new skills!

If interested in attending the half-day clinics, please register online at LebanonNH.gov/Register or by clicking below.

Cabot Ride the Ridges 2026 marks Year 13 of this fantastic gravel grinder, with each and every year better than the last.

What is the Vermont Super 8 Grand Depart?​

It's a self-supported bikepacking adventure that takes place at the end of September. Most riders start and finish in Montpelier. The course is self-navigated using GPS devices. Riders are provided with a route and a list of resources, but they otherwise must carry their own gear and make their own camping arrangements. The course features some of Vermont's extremely rugged roads and trails, and it covers very hilly terrain.

What to Expect 

2026 marks the 39th Anniversary of the Great River Ride. Over the years the GRR has been recognized by the League of American Bicyclists (LAB) and Bicycling Magazine as one of the top century rides in America. A variety of routes are offered to match the skill levels of all participants. Event proceeds will benefit the programs of the Friends of the Columbia Greenway Rail Trail (FOCGRT), a 501 3c nonprofit organization.  

Staffed refreshment stops along the ride as well as a post-ride buffet with live entertainment from 2:00 PM to 5:30 PM. 

Race on the Northeast Kingdom's "wild side” in this reincarnation of the popular CircumBurke race (2010-2018).  Our club is not a commercial race promoter. 100% of proceeds are reinvested in trail maintenance on Victory Hill.   

Welcome to the 11th Annual Keene Pumpkin Cyclocross Race on Sunday, October 5th.  The event is held at the Surry Mountain Recreation Area just outside of Keene in Southwest NH.  The race is on Surry Mountain lake with beautiful  hillside vistas during what is typically peak foliage for the region.
