The Tour of the Battenkill was a single-day road cycling race held in the Battenkill valley, in Washington County, New York.[1] It was 62.2 miles long, includes many hills, dirt and gravel road sections and as of 2011 it has been held seven times. From 2010 to 2012, the race was rated as a 1.2 event on the UCI America Tour.

Tour of the Battenkill founder Dieter Drake of Anthem Sports sold the event to Rugged Races in late 2017. Rugged Maniac was then purchased by Gannett Media who then ran the event under their endurance sports division, Ventures Endurance through 2024.

In October of 2024, it was announced that the Tour of the Battenkill will be organized in 2025 by its original founder, Dieter Drake of Anthem Sports under a new name — "Battenkill" — after Ventures Endurance declined to continue with the event. Battenkill will return to the Village of Cambridge, NY where it was held from 2009 through 2014.[2]
