Gran Fondo Florida 2027
Central Florida's toughest gran fondo — 100 miles of rolling roads through horse farms and orange groves near Dade City, with timed-segment racing all day.
The vibe
Orange groves, timed-segment racing
Don’t let Florida’s modest elevation numbers fool you — Gran Fondo Florida’s nonstop rolling terrain through Pasco County horse farms and orange groves makes it arguably the toughest stop on the series despite never really climbing much. It’s a different kind of hard: no recovery, just constant small efforts that add up over 100 miles.
Like every Gran Fondo National Series stop, placement is decided by combined time across designated timed segments, not your overall finish time — so you can enjoy the quiet country roads between efforts without worrying about your overall clock. Three distances (Gran, Medio, Piccolo) mean there’s a version of this ride for riders chasing a result and riders just chasing a good day out.
Post-ride includes a meal, beer, and a shot at a $5,000+ finisher raffle. Starts and finishes at Dade City Brew House.
