SUMMARY:Architecture Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:  \nExperience the Waterford National Historic Landmark on a guided historic walking tour!  In 1970 the Secretary of the Interior designated Waterford and its rural surround a National Historic Landmark. Well into the 20th century\, most Americans lived and worked on farms or in small towns like this one. Few of these places have remained much as they were. Waterford\, miraculously\, is one that has. Walk with us through time for clues to Waterford’s character and tenacity. It is a story of ordinary people who did extraordinary things. They built a thriving town from wilderness; they endured a long and bloody war that threatened to destroy their home; and in good times and bad they held tightly to their vision of a special place. Preserving the village and its setting as a national site for everyone is the principal mission of the Waterford Foundation. \nThis month’s theme is historic architecture. Come do a deep dive into the built environment of the Village of Waterford\, learn more about the architectural styles prevalent in the Village\, and some of the stories behind some of the well known buildings in Waterford! \nOn your tour\, you will see houses from the mid 18th century to the 21st. The tour begins at the Old School and covers the entire village in about 90 minutes. Tours will run rain or shine\, so come dressed for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. \nRegister Here

This route meanders through rolling countryside\, historical landmarks\, and charming farms.\n“Full Pint.” Medium Route (~40 miles)\nIdeal for riders looking for a bit more challenge and adventure\, tapering from the race circuit\, or seeking a new personal best. Featuring a balanced mix of scenic gravel and pavement\, you’ll traverse through breathtaking views and significant historical sites.\n“The Stein.” Long Route (~60 miles)\nDesigned for the more ambitious cyclist\, this route tests your endurance through stunning vistas\, historical backdrops\, and delightful rural roads that go up\, down\, up\, down\, up\, down\, etc. Expect rewarding climbs and exhilarating descents.\n\nDetailed route maps and GPS files will be available soon. \nRegistration coming soon for 2026. \nThe Celebration – New Friends\, Great Beer\, Delicious Food \nAfter you crush the course\, you’ll return back to Wheatland Spring Farm and Brewery\, greeted by friendly WBC volunteers. \nYou’ll receive a commemorative Chalice of the Gravel pint cup and one free pint of locally-crafted Wheatland Spring beer\, and a commemorative wood medallion you can show your friends on Monday. \nIf you haven’t visited Wheatland Spring Farm and Brewery\, you’re going to fall in love with it.

The 20- and 40-milers start at 9am.\nRide type. This is a ride\, not a race\, and we hope you’ll enjoy the routes at a comfortable pace. This ride routes you through beautiful roads paved and unpaved\, and the route will not be closed.
