About this event

The Shoo-Fly Classic is offering both road and gravel options for 2026. For the roadies out there, we're offering the three traditional mileage options of 20, 40 or 62 miles. For the gravel cyclists out there, come join us for an approachable yet challenging 26-mile loop with just under 1,900-feet of climbing! Cyclists of all ages and abilities will enjoy the scenic roads of the Oley valley in beautiful Berks County. Enjoy rides that meander through gently rolling farmland, some punchy climbs for our gravel grinders, a covered bridge, multiple historic landmarks of the Oley valley and an assortment of great food and drinks from our local county businesses. Sponsors for 2025 included Good's Potato Chips, Unique Snacks, Nature's Garden, Kutztown Soda Works, Redner's Markets, and Weis Markets.
