The Race is dedicated to the memory of

NYS Trooper David Brinkerhoff

This year the Capital Bicycle Racing Club is teaming up with the Army Cycling Team to host an expanded Trooper David Brinkerhoff Memorial Race. In addition to the fields that we have typically run, we will be hosting racers from the Eastern Collegiate Cycling Conference (ECCC). To accommodate the additional racers, we will be running two waves of fields, one starting at 10 am and the second starting at 12 pm.

Now in it's 11th year, the Farmer's Daughter Gravel Grinder (FDGG) is “the must do spring cycling event in the Northeast.” To celebrate, we've added the Farmer's Granddaughter, a shortened route with no off-road sections! Regardless of which course you ride, you'll be treated to some of the most beautiful scenery in the Northeast, with plenty of climbing, and plenty of fun descents to match. Named after the Chatham Brewery’s Rye IPA born and brewed in Columbia County in beautiful upstate New York, the ride offers a truly grand tour of northern Columbia County and surrounding areas.
