THE VERMONT CHALLENGE
Southern Vermont
The Vermont Challenge has become the
“must- ride” cycling tour of New England. The
Vermont Challenge fits a niche between the
many one-day rides and the high-end weeklong
packaged tours. It’s the best of both rolled
into a four-day tour. Of course, you can choose
to ride fewer than all four days, but to truly
experience the beauty of Vermont and this
event, we strongly urge you to ride with us
for two or more days. Join us for our very
special 7th year anniversary and some new
twists and turns.
The Vermont Challenge offers daily routes that
are both challenging routes for elite recreational
cyclists as well as tamer routes for all riders.
The routes traverse Southern and Central
Vermont over four days, including a signature
Gran, Medio, and Piccolo Fondo for all riders
on Saturday.
