As always this was another great ride. This was my 4th year and every time it’s been a great experience. With everything going on this year I thought about canceling but I’m glad I didn’t. Thanks again for putting all this together and making this such a great event.

Fun and challenging distances for ANY CYCLIST.

Come to Race 100 or 75-miles or Ride 35, 50, 75-miles.

As a true Gran Fondo, immediately after our racers leave the start line area on the 75 & 100-mile courses, all distances will be open to our recreational cyclists on our 35, 50, 75 and 100 mile routes. All courses weave throughout our spectacular mountain valley, and all routes, with the exception of our Piccolo 35-mile course, offer a slight hill challenge followed my mostly flat sections on low-traffic roads.

All distances offer well-stocked support stations with real food from Lee’s Marketplace, Newton Market, Woodwards Country Store, and Thomas Market. Our nutrition and hydration sponsor, Hammer Nutrition will provide Hammer Gels, electrolytes, and Heed supplements at all rest stops. For the past 14 years Pepsi provides Pepsi products at the support stops, and a fully-stocked Pepsi trailer at the finish line. Intermountain Healthcare, Great Harvest Bakery and Cafe Ibis Coffee provide a light breakfast at the start-line, and a unique rider lunch where you chose your preference from one of 3 different local restaurants. Over 40 local and statewide sponsors also provide over $8000 worth of rider prizes and rider gifts, including Campchef stoves and outdoor cooking items, cycling items from Al’s Sporting Goods, Joyride Bikes & The Sportsman. Our local Cache Valley Chamber of Commerce, Cache Valley Visitor’s Bureau, Cache County and North Logan City all provide support from the community to show their support for this community-centered event.

We are a USACycling sanctioned event, & provide insurance on all registered riders.

Today for the first time I made it up the hill on the 50 mile to get to the second stop in Newton. I literally was crying. I still am while I’m sitting here. I never could have done this without the opportunity for me to tackle the impossible. Thank you!

35, 50, 75 and 100-mile courses
Compete to the level you want, and the distance you prefer to ride.

The Cache Gran Fondo offers 4 different distances, from a mostly-flat 35-mile course to a tough and challenging 100+ Century that tests even the most-experienced cyclists. Each is fully supported with aid stations and roving radio crews and law enforcement professionals.

The start and finish are easy to find, park, and relax before and after the event. And even though you are not racing, you still are eligible for hundreds of prizes, drawn randomly throughout the day.

Congrats on another spectacular year. I rode the 76 and the new course through Preston was fabulous. All stations were very well-stocked. A near perfect day although you could have provided a bit more cloud cover like last year, ha. We were done by 11:30 so not bad at all. Well done.

Gran Fondo = Big Ride

Gran Fondos are mass participation cycling events that usually include both a race and a ride component. Gran Fondos have enjoyed a growing popularity in Europe for decades, and are now increasingly spreading around the world. The 14th annual Cache Gran Fondo is one of the oldest Gran Fondos in North America, and the largest in Utah and the Intermountain West.

Cache Valley & Utah

There is the natural beauty of Utah, an incredibly diverse state with breath-taking desert landscape in the south and majestic mountain vistas in the north. But then, here is Cache Valley, a peaceful mountain valley in northern Utah where the air in the summer is crisp and clean, the traffic is light, and the cycling is spectacular.
