Frost Heave Fondo
The spring classic is back. The ridge, the gravel, that oh-so sweet rest stop and a strong finish at Thresher’s Brewing in Searsmont. Dust off that knobby-tired bike and get after it!

The Pine Tree Loop
All aboard the MGS Express, destination, ADVENTURE! This soon-to-be classic winds it’s way through Waldo county, over dirt roads, ATV trails, and Maine’s top-notch busted-ass pavement. Choo-choo!

Down Cellah Classic
Voted ‘best ride of 2021’ by me, this, the DCC’s third year, will be a doozie. Starting on RT 3 at lovely Lake St. George State Park, this route winds north to Freedom before heading back south through Liberty and Appleton on almost exclusively unpaved roads and trails. Outrageous fun.

Island Time 35
A hilly jaunt in the shadows of the Midcoast’s resident badboys, Ragged, Hatchet, and Megunticook mtns. 2 route lengths this year, both brutal. Grilled pineapple at the finish and Hawaiian shirts highly encouraged. Shaka, brah!
