Description: RBC is teaming up with KC&E Adventures this Saturday for our first Travel Gravel event in 2025. We’ll explore the scenic backroads and quiet gravel routes of the Litchfield Hills, including sections through White Memorial, offering a perfect blend of adventure and flow. There are two routes (51.7 miles and 26.3 miles) to pick from. The shorter route is a no drop ride where faster rides are encourage to regroup along the way.
Riders must have gravel tires with "recommended" minimum 38mm gravel tire width. No road tires allowed on this ride. Riders with road tires will not be checked in and therefore will not be covered under club insurance.
