Your race is one of my favorites.

Great course. I always do Union Vale, Bear, Jiminy and Battenkill.

One of the better if not the best road races I've participated in.

THANKS EVERYONE FOR A GREAT RACE

Thanks to all the raceers, and all the volunteers and staff who made the race a success.

A few items and information / feedback



The Tokeneke Classic is a bicycle race organized by and for racers, looping around the Berkhamsted reservoir in central Connecticut. The area was chosen because of the challenging terrain and spectacular beauty of the race course. We think it is one of the best courses in the Northeast, and we've raced a few of them. The course consists of multiple loops around a hilly 22-mile circuit with about 2000 feet of climbing per lap.
