2022 Event Registration Now OPEN!
It's January and cold. Like really freakin' cold. Which means it's time to plan a vacation. And we've got one (or two) for you complete with early bird pricing.
That's right, registration is NOW OPEN for most of our 2022 events including the Adirondack Women's Weekend, Ride for the River, Handlebarley, Weekender at Paul Smith's College, Great Camp Sagamore Experiences and some incredible small-group weeklong tours - one of which is our new mutli-sport tour that combines cycling, hiking and paddling.
Below is a summary of each tour with registration now open.
Cruise through and if you have any questions, just me up. There are few things I love more than helping people experience the Adirondacks by bike.
Hope to see you this summer,
