Velocity Riders can look forward to:
Three fully supported routes: approximately 15K (9 mi), 50K (31 mi), or 100K (62.5 mi)
Complimentary bike and participant transportation
An inspiring Opening Ceremony
The Velocity Day Festival, featuring a beer garden (21+), food, music, family activities and more!
THE RIDE
Three professionally designed and supported routes leave from our Start/Finish in Purchase, New York and wind their way through the beautiful foliage and rolling hills of the Hudson Valley.
Each of our three routes will have a distinct start time and Opening Ceremony.
Please note that the 100K has more than 4,000 vertical feet of climbing and is designed for more experienced riders.
No matter what distance you choose, you can rest assured that our fleet of support vehicles will be there when you need it.
Adult Riders (16+) can choose any of our three routes. Youth Riders (12-15 years old) may only ride the 15K with a parent or guardian.
Please note, the map above shows the approximate route and is subject to change.
