Location: Woody Lowden Recreation Center, Foster, RI
Host: It’s Just A Hill
Sloppy Jon’s is a community-focused, mixed-surface ride hosted by It’s Just A Hill. This is not a race. There is no podium. It’s a social ride built around challenging routes, good company, and spending a full day on the bike.
What’s New for 2026
After three years of starting from Jon’s house, we’re stepping things up slightly and hosting the event at a proper venue. Sloppy Jon’s will start and finish at the Woody Lowden Recreation Center in Foster, RI, giving us more space, better parking, and a smoother day overall while keeping the same community-first feel.
