Garden State Gravel Series

This ride is an opportunity for gravel-curious riders to experience the hype around this growing cycling movement. Routes will start at the beginner/intermediate level, with more challenging routes added in the following months to accommodate advanced riders and riders honing and improving skills. Rides will range from 20-40 miles and keep a comfortable/conversational pace, 13-16mph average (1000ft. Avg. Elevation gain). If paces differ, then we will split into two groups. This is a “no drop” ride, meaning we will have leaders and sweepers to ensure faster riders wait at the top of tough climbs for other riders in the group. No rider will be left behind.
