Bike the Kingdom

Check out our Video Slide Show – Tour de Kingdom

In 2024 we are offering two great events, with three days of rides:  The Moose on June 8 and 9, 2024 and Fly to Pie on October 5, 2024.  The Moose is a 103 mile “timed event” on wide open roads on Saturday (with a shorter 66-mile option) on Saturday with a Lake Region Ride, 44 miles to Sutton, past  Crystal and through the Willoughby Gap on Sunday .   Fly to Pie is a 26.2 mile “timed event” on mostly dirt roads through “The Gut” of the Kingdom in October during Fall Foliage season.

THE MOOSE

  

Saturday and Sunday, June 8-9, 2024 – The Moose .

On Saturday, we gather at Mike’s Tiki Bar in East Burke at 8 am with a start at 8:30  am.  We head north up Route 114 through Island Pond to Bloomfield and then up Route 102 to Canaan, one of the most beautiful and serene stretches of the Connecticut River, before returning on Route 114 through Norton and Island Pond and then back to East Burke.  Here’s a link to Saturday’s Century Course Map.  For those looking to ride a shorter distance (66 miles), we start at Island Pond at 9:30 am and just do the Norton, Canaan, Bloomfield “Moose Loop.”

THE MOOSE, is a “timed event,” with some great prizes and wonderful spirit.  These roads are wide and “car hungry”.  Racers must obey all of the rules of the road.  That means you have to stop at all stop signs.  But, hey, there are only three in the entire 103 miles.

On Sunday, we offer a Lake Region Ride, a 44-mile “cool down” ride through some of the most beautiful stretches in Vermont:  Up to Sutton, past Crystal Lake, and through the Willoughby Gap.

Riders on both days receive $15 in Moose Money to be spent at Mike’s Tiki Bar (with 30 beer on tap) and the neighboring Burrito Wagon.  An adventure in and of itself.

FLY TO PIE

Saturday, October 7, 2023 and October 5, 2024 – Fly to Pie – Kingdom Marathon.  We leave from the Airport in Coventry, travel on mostly dirt roads through “The Gut” of the Northeast Kingdom and finish up at Parker Pie in West Glover.  Great Beer, Great Music, and GREAT PIZZA.
