The 2023 Garmin Gravel Worlds promises an unparalleled challenge for the gravel enthusiast. The pirates are charting a route of approximately 150 miles and over 10,000 ft of climbing – adventuring through the rural farmlands of Southeastern Nebraska. World Championship jerseys are up for grabs in all categories.
Overall Male and Female win the title of Captain of the Gravel Seas, World Champions Jersey, and Pirate Sword Trophy.
The Privateer Gravel Grinder presented by Cycle Works! Not wanting to walk the full plank? Plunderous nonetheless, our shortened course will test the mettle and give no quarter. We are plotting a (roughly) 75-mile voyage with 5,000 ft of elevation with checkpoints and high-seas refueling opportunities.
Trophies awarded to all categories.
The Buccaneer is a 50 km event for those that want to get their feet wet in the world of gravel. This is a non-competitive event. The 31- mile route will stay closer to the Fallbrook Neighborhood with some rollers (about 2,000 ft of elevation) and one checkpoint stop along the route.
(We give away a lot of the stuff we test)
