First come first served for reserving a spot inside Tom and Pat’s house in Lyndonville. (Please vaccinated folks only!) Or there is plenty of camping in the yard. After the ride, drinks at the Tiki Bar! Breakfast at Cafe Lotti — best bacon ever! Potluck BBQ at Pat and Tom’s Saturday night.

Special GMBC and Richard Tom Foundation Gravel Ride

The routes will be unmarked, and there are no designated food stops or sag support. Maps and cue sheets will be available at the start.
This event is free! Donations to RTF greatly appreciated. GMBC is organizing the event, and RTF will provide post-ride burgers, brats, and soft drinks as a thank you for all the support we have received from the cycling community. BYOB if you want to celebrate with a beer or two – bring extra to share and celebrate as we shift from the outdoor riding season to skiing (and perhaps fat biking) in our wonderful state of Vermont.
We are hoping for good weather and a large turnout! Help us celebrate all that GMBC offers and share the spirit of fun and adventure that Richard Tom exemplified throughout his life!
