Presented with support from Burrows Sports, the Retreat Farm Ramble is our first annual cycling event.
Registration 8am | Ride starts 9am | Post-Ride Party & Concert 1pm
Experience the best back roads of southern Vermont on a new scenic tour of active farmland, covered bridges, deep woods, and rolling hills on your bike or e-bike. This supported ride will feature 15 mile, 30 mile, or 50 mile loops starting and ending at Retreat Farm. Rest stops at some of the region’s most iconic farms will include maple syrup shots, pickle juice, and more to keep you rolling through the day.
With Farm tours and pop-up art, the Farm's family friendly spaces will entertain the entire family during your ride. Bring a kayak or canoe and spend the day paddling Wantastegok (Retreat Meadows) or enjoy the 10-mile multi use trail network, visit animals on pasture, or explore forest playground and storybook walk.
After your ride, join the post-ride party and concert featuring a mix of covers and originals by Orcha Uprising with delicious food trucks and Vermont craft brews. Formed by members of two Brattleboro favorites, John Jamison and Jeff Richardson of Jatoba and Even Lincoln and Marcel LeClaire of Flabberghaster, Orcha Uprising gives a hard-hitting voice to their repertoire, with driving drum and bass grooves, soaring synth lines and shredding guitar solos.
