About The Overland

The Overland is a 55-mile (distances fluctuate based on years/course) dirt road bicycle ride featuring close to 7,000 feet of climbing, eight sectors of Class4 Roads (unmaintained ancient public through-ways), two sag stops, a magnificently scenic route and an awesome party afterwards. It’s the ultimate overland adventure ride. Open dirt roads, amazing scenery and an epic course unlike any you’ve ever ridden before, all within a beautiful Vermont pastoral setting.

The purpose of this race is to promote the wonderful world of overland adventure riding and to benefit the Reading/West Windsor Food Shelf, Ascutney Outdoors and WAMBA–all integral organizations in the event’s host towns of Reading/West Windsor/Woodstock.

All Vermont Overland volunteers are treated to free meals from The Brownsville Butcher & Pantry as well as Vermont Overland swag. If you have an interest in volunteering, please sign up below! After you submit the form, the Vermont Overland team will reach out directly.
