The Slate Valley Epic is a 40+ mile, over 5,000 feet vertical mountain bike race on Vermont’s newest and best single track trails in the Slate Valley of southwestern Vermont in Poultney, VT.

The inaugural Slate Valley Epic was a success! We had great weather, and amazing turnout! The race was sold out in just 23 days! So for 2022 we expanded the field to 200 races on Saturday and added a Sunday relay race along with camping on site. We expect most will return and the Saturday race will be sold out even quicker this year.

Saturday's Epic Race starts at 7:30 AM and ends at 4:30 when prizes and raffles will be awarded. The races and vendor expo are at Slate Valley Trails' Fairgrounds trailhead located at 131 Town Farm Rd, Poultney, VT.
