Gravel Cat is a go!  Let hope there is a lot of interest!

 

Just bear in mind that there are some technical parts on the 70km race that you may have to portage on the gravel bike

 

see you all there

its all rideable. just be gentle on the one lil hill and downhill it was my downfall in both attempts on my cx, would be cool to have a seperate start to interfere less in the first 10k of speed

Hi Brandon

 

We intend to have a separate category all together, so the gravel category will have a separate start to avoid any interference with the MTB race.

Take my money already!

the one where you cross the main gravel road..., both times i cut my tires beyond repair. also run ghetto tubeless with a old 26er tube... the excess rubber on the rim helps avoid pinch flats.

Brandon, were you riding on a Cannondale Slate during this year's race? Because I remember that rider had to portage through some of the water gullies.

[brandon91]

nope i have a caadx. didnt have to portage. had to cut short on the summer one thanks to a cut in my tire

[Chris NewbyFraser]

The event page says that gravel bikes are catered for

[NotSoBigBen]

I don't see anything when entering the 70k only 'open men/ open women' ... Or am I doing something wrong?

Hi Ben

 

the Gravel cat will be captured when you collect your number board, it is not specified on the online entry system. Please just remember to tell the folks at registration that you will be riding a gravel bike. We will then give further details about the batch start at the race briefing.

 

regards
