Stowe Trails Partnership is thrilled to present Vermont’s favorite autumn mountain bike tradition: the 14th annual Leaf Blower Fall Classic Mountain Bike Festival! This year’s Leaf Blower will be held on Saturday, October 4th, 2025, and will be hosted at Strawberry Hill Farm. With amazing riding for all ability levels, awesome vendors, homegrown food, local libations, and live music, there is no better way to cap off the season than with this one-day community bike bash.

As always, the marquee draw will be the rides, tackling some of the northeast’s best terrain and affording some of Vermont’s most epic views—whether you love endurance or are new to riding, we have a singletrack loop for you that’ll pass multiple aid stations and maximize the fun!

After you’ve gotten your fill of single-track, join us back at Strawberry Hill Farm for a variety of food trucks; some brews and beverages; music, and a vendor village full of local businesses. Your registration fee covers the rides, vendor garden, aid station snacks, a post-ride beverage, and a food truck dinner.

Be sure to register early – we expect the event to sell out. The Leaf Blower is STP’s biggest fundraiser of the year, so we appreciate your participation! Ticket pricing below, and don’t forget to add your Leaf Blower shirt to your order. Pre-orders must be purchased by September 20th, 2025!
