100% Pure Grade-A Gravel — Always Fresh, Never Frozen.

Mark your calendar for February 28, 2026 and get ready for the South’s rowdiest weekend on dirt.

An hour south of Atlanta, Homegrown Gravel Adventure serves up miles of red clay, rolling hills, and the kind of small-town hospitality that makes this race more than just a ride.

This year brings a $10,000 prize purse for the 100-mile race, plus new 20- and 40-mile distances to go with our classic 62- and tough-as-nails 100-mile routes. There are more categories than ever, Junior and Collegiate discounts, and a full weekend of camping, live music, great food, cold beer, and shakeout rides before and after the big day.

Every year, Homegrown gives back — all profits go right back into the community through partners like the Heard County Food Pantry and MTB Atlanta.

Hosted by Independent Gravel, the East Point Track Club and MTB Atlanta, Homegrown is the season-opening stop of the new Southern Discomfort Series, alongside Country Crossroads, Country Cross Weekend, and Dirty Sheets Gravel Grinder.
