Farmer's Daughter Gravel Grinder
About this race
Event Overview 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 single track/ trail 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.
