About this race
DIRTY PIZZA WEEKEND 2026
On tap is a full weekend of food, bikes and camaraderie that you'll not soon forget.
We've pulled the best bits of local riding together into these loops and we can't wait to share them with you. The routes feature panoramic views across the river valley into Vermont, quiet rolling gravel roads, no shortage of leg busting climbs and honestly, some of the best riding anywhere in the surrounding three states.
