GRAVEL RIDES

Gravel rides for a cause, supported by Down The Road — every donation goes directly to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. And to keep things fun, we’ll raffle off some cool gear from Down The Road right at the start line among everyone who chips in.

Format: Drop ride with two pace groups.

FORMAT

Full announcement drops on Wednesday.
Final route file goes live on Friday.

This is a drop ride with two pace groups. Ride your own tempo — there’s no obligation to wait. Choose the group that matches your fitness, come self-supported, and carry everything you need to fix your bike and make it home on your own.

We regroup and reconnect at scheduled stops along the way.

GROUPS

1. Full Gas
Expect ~24 km/h and up. We’ll roll hard, depending on the crew and the vibe that day. If the group’s feeling good — we send it.

2. Steady & Strong
Around ~20 km/h and up. At the start, look for Ivan or Serhii from Rideout Club — you can key off their tempo and ride comfortably all the way in.

The gap between the groups isn’t massive. We’ll reconnect at the planned stops.

SAFETY
You are responsible for your own safety.

This is a self-supported ride. You must have:
– Offline GPS navigation
– A repair kit for your bike
– A few friends (highly recommended)

One of those will definitely come in handy.
