Gran Fondo Florida 2027, a SENA Gran Fondo National Series event
About the Event
Experience Gran Fondo Florida, set for March 22, 2026, through the picturesque rolling hills and serene landscapes of Pasco & Hernando Counties. The race starts and finishes at Dade City Brew House on Seventh Street, offering a perfect blend of natural beauty and vibrant atmosphere. Choose from three routes tailored to different abilities: Gran Fondo (135 km), Medio (60 km), and Piccolo (28 km). Each route weaves through orange groves, past horse farms, and alongside crystal-clear springs. Highlights include Darby Road, a historic stretch that has hosted the famous Darby Road Race and is now a training ground for top triathletes. The event introduces timed segment racing with four distinct time sections on the Gran Fondo course. The best combined times across these segments will determine overall rankings. No racing license is required to participate; simply sign up and embrace the challenge of this unique Florida experience. Gran Fondo Florida promises a memorable finish-line party, complete with a post-ride meal and complimentary beer courtesy of Dade City Brew House for all participants. Prizes await in every age group—ranging from custom race kits to incredible raffle prizes sponsored by Gran Fondo National Series partners. For packet pickup and expo, visit Church Avenue between Eighth and Tenth Streets on Saturday from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM or Dade City Brew House starting at 5:30 AM the day of the race. Check-in is mandatory with ID; we recommend picking up your package early to avoid last-minute crowds. The course maps, including detailed timed segment information, are available online for thorough preparation. The route will be well-marked, but downloading the RideWithGPS app can enhance navigation and enjoyment. Join Gran Fondo Florida not just as a competitor but as part of raising funds for Pasco County SRO Explorer Program, supporting law enforcement services to schools countywide through your participation.
