BROWNINGTON — The Redemption Gravel Bicycle Race will debut at the Old Stone House Museum in Brownington on Saturday, September 1.
Currently, the event has over 250 racers enlisted.
The race promises to be a challenge to both physical and mental toughness.
Racers have the choice of 100 miles or 50 miles of beautiful local gravel roads.
The Redemption Gravel Race was created by Anthony Moccia and Heidi Myers, who created the renowned Rasputitsa Spring Classic.
The Raputitsa Spring Classic is held in East Burke in April and brings in over 1,500 racers annually.
Moccia and Myers say they hope to grow the Redemption Gravel Race to the same level by next year and will turn this race into a three-day stage race for 2019.
