Riders will meet and start at the Northern Fauquier Community Park. Plan to arrive at 10:30 and be prepared to roll at 11:00. Riders are responsible for their own transportation to and from the start/finish, and carpooling is encouraged.

Both routes include one resupply stop, with several options available in Middleburg.

The Fine Print: As always, a helmet is required, a gravel/cx/all road bike in good mechanical condition with 32mm or wider tires is recommended, and a chill, positive attitude is preferred. You should have the route loaded onto your GPS device and be prepared to navigate the route on your own if necessary. You are expected to have the items and ability to repair a flat and a smartphone to ensure you're able to make your way back if you become separated from the group.

The Bluemont Connection Winter Gravel Ride Series is a five-part series of progressively challenging rides throughout winter and early spring.
