The GMBC executive committee strives to make our club a model for healthy and safe behaviors and we prefer that everyone on the rides is fully vaccinated and boosted. Please do not ride if you feel sick or have had a known recent exposure to Covid-19 or flu.

Kelly Brush Ride

This ride takes place in Middlebury, VT
Addison Ambler
Please register for this ride here.
This route travels south from Vergennes to Weybridge via Route 125 and then west to Bridport and West Addison and back to Vergennes on quiet roads. The short ride is 45 miles (M) and the long is 60 (S) with roughly two miles of dirt roads to avoid riding Rt 22a from Bridport to Shoreham. There is no designated rest or food stop, but the Champlain Bridge restaurant is at the foot of the Champlain Bridge on the VT side. It is a possible stop if you wish to get food before heading back to Vergennes.
There may be a need for an additional co-leader for this ride. Please contact Brian if you are willing to help out.

Touring, 'unofficial', Fall-1
Please register for this ride here. Because there are no assigned leaders for these end of season rides, it is possible that no one will have access to this registration information during the ride, so please be prepared.
At the beginning and end of the riding season we have leaderless rides from a set location. These touring rides do not have assigned leaders and or a planned route. Due to often unpredictable weather during those months, distance and route is determined by whomever shows up. Only the start/meeting site is predetermined. There may be one or more groups and/or destinations.
Everyone, regardless of membership status, must have a signed GMBC Rider Waiver on record to participate in any GMBC event. You only have to sign ONCE a season and then all rides are covered.
