Description: The goal is to post a Travel Gravel ride once a month. The objective is to ride some awesome gravel routes that are outside of our local area ~ generally within two hours of Ridgefield.
This event is considered a Meet UP event(1) for RBC members. Travel Gravel #2 will be in the Dutchess County area. We will be riding with folks from GrNY.org. They have three routes posted on their website (Most of us will be riding the Medium route). Please see their website to download your desired route and gather more information. Also, see the GrNY Strava site to join their club (It's free to join) and RSVP for the event.
We start in the Dover Plains Train Station (use the Market Street parking lot, not the Railroad street parking lot) about 60 minutes from Ridgefield. Please arrive at least 15 minutes before start and have route downloaded. Post ride gathering @ Kelly's Creamery & Kelly's Husband's Food Truck.
(1) RBC Meet UP events are not RBC rides. They are rides from another organization, and as such, RBC members need to sign up and accept the terms of the organization that is running the event. The posting of the event in the RBC calendar are for informational purposes and to facilitate member meet ups for the event.
RIDERS MUST HAVE GRAVEL TIRES. "Recommended" tire width would be 38mm or larger. No road tires allowed on this ride. Riders with road tires will not be checked in and will not be covered under club insurance.
