The Garden State Fondo (formerly Gran Fondo NJ)

The Garden State Fondo was established in 2011 with the goal of putting on the best cycling experience in the US in a socially conscious manner.

In 2019 The Garden State Fondo was named the #1 Gran Fondo in the US by Gran Fondo Guide  - our fifth year in a row among the top Three Gran Fondos in the USA, and our second time at the top of the list.  Over the first 8 years, the event and its participants have raised over $1,250,000 for both Local and National Charitable Organizations.

The event is held the first Sunday after Labor Day (September 8th in 2019) and offers over-the-top rest stops on its routes of 125, 107, 75, 62, 42 and 18 miles.  On the five longer routes there are timed hill climbs on the toughest climbs on the routes for those looking to test their climbing legs and try and earn one of our coveted KoM/QoM jerseys.
