The Cider Run 2026 takes place on September 19, 2026 in Uxbridge, Ontario, with the start/finish located at Slabtown Cider Co. The event sits in a region long served by RealDeal Racing, the local event crew established in 2005 that has produced a string of road and community cycling events in the area.
The Cider Run is a single‑day, festival‑style gathering held on the cidery property. Exact race formats and start times vary with each edition; the mid‑September date makes for cool morning running and a relaxed afternoon atmosphere at the venue. Runners should expect a day built around the cidery site rather than a multi‑day competition.
What sets this event apart is the setting: runners cross a finish line at an operational cidery, which keeps the post‑race vibe casual and social. Slabtown welcomes attendees on site, and there will be a food truck serving prepared food for purchase after the race. RealDeal Racing’s local experience lends a community focus to the day—this is as much about a local gathering and finishing at the cidery as it is about the race itself.
