Two days, six routes and a whole weekend of cycling fun in Saratoga Springs!
Each day’s rides will begin and end at the Saratoga Regional YMCA pavilion on West Avenue. Riders will have a choice to ride a beautiful 30-mile, 50-mile or 75-mile route each day with full SAG support . All riders will return to the YMCA after the ride for a catered lunch before heading downtown to enjoy all that Saratoga Springs offers. Check out our downtown Happy Hour for exclusive SFR deals on craft beer, wine by the glass and cocktails. And all participants get a 10% discount card good at dozens of area restaurants and stores!
Saturday's rides will explore the fields, farmlands, and vibrant foliage of Saratoga County, with a delightful stop at the iconic King Dairy farm store. With a century of farming heritage in Saratoga County, the King family adds a touch of tradition to your journey. And let's be honest, is there ever a wrong time for ice cream?
Cyclists on both the 50- and 75- mile routes will be treated to gorgeous views along the Hudson River, tracing the paths of the Empire State Trail. Both Saturday's and Sunday's rides will include a stop at the Saratoga Battle Monument, a majestic 155-foot-tall stone obelisk erected in 1883 to honor the historic 1777 Battle of Saratoga. Don't miss the opportunity to climb to the top for a spectacular view!
Cyclists on Sunday’s 50- and 75-mile routes will ride to the Saratoga National Historical Park, passing through the very fields where colonial forces first defeated the British army – the “Turning Point” of the American Revolution.
Come ride with us! Last year’s inaugural event drew riders from throughout the Capital District and from as far away as Connecticut, Florida, Maine, New Jersey, New York City and South Carolina! The combination of a world-class tourist city and adjacent rural cycling routes makes Saratoga Springs a special cycling destination. We hope to see you October 5-6th.
