WATA's Annual Waterbury Gravel Grinder - Ride Starts at 9AM from Pilgrim Park in beautiful downtown Waterbury, VT. 

We'll have two routes this year! 

The Traditional Grinder: This route will be ~25 miles with lots of climbing and lots of dirt winding through the hills of Waterbury - pretty similar to years past (but we'll switch it up so you don't get bored). Route details are being finalized so check the event page for updates (and we'll send out an e-mail when it gets finalized). 

The Big Grind: NEW this year! You asked for it, so here it is - a ~40 mile route with even more climbing and gravelly goodness. Really want to test your early season legs? Stoked on the Traditional Grinder but want to see if you can push it a little farther? This is for you. Route details TBD - stay tuned for updates. 

Refreshments: There will be an aid station mid-route with plenty of snacks, including water and other libations. Did someone say Jell-O?

Included in your registration fee is food provided by The Blackback Pub! After the ride we'll serve up some hot grub at Pilgrim Park - so make sure to bring your appetite and some warm clothes (it can get chilly). We'll also have great Vermont craft beer provided by the Vermont Beer Shepherd. Pre-ride breakfast, coffee and snacks will be provided by Stowe Street Cafe, by donation!

 

Weather: We ride rain or shine - it's a gravel grinder after all!



Please pre-register on BikeReg - $60 pre-registration (includes a t-shirt and food/beverages) or $75 day-of registration (includes food/beverages - no shirt). 

This is WATA's largest annual fundraiser - all proceeds from this race go directly to support trail building and maintenance in the Waterbury Area - places like Perry Hill trails, Little River State Park's new trails, and elsewhere. We rely heavily on this funding to operator - come help us out and have fun doing it!
