Solidarity, fellow gravelleurs and gravelistas!
Like crocuses underfoot and swans overhead, recent sightings of two-wheeled enthusiasts are a reassuring sign that we have officially emerged from the long, dark tunnel that was winter 2025.
We see you (and your noble steed) out there!
But don’t feel you need to toil on the pavement and gravel in solitude any longer….
The Gritty C.O.G (Clash of Generations) 2025 is almost here!
Come and gather, ride, and rejoice with friends new and old. Connect with a network of local riders. Find a new training partner. Extend the bridge of friendship across the generational divide…. and ruthlessly try to rip their legs off!!
Or…you know… just come out for a fun ride, make some friends and chill in the beer garden. We'll be stoked to see you either way (and your noble steed, of course).

The Route, The Route
The Route is on 🔥
Make no mistake; this is a challenging course. The first riders should complete the course in about 2.5 hrs. Conditions through the ski trails and singletrack at Mt. Mac will be variable (wet). Be prepared with enough food, water and tools to be self-sufficient for up to 5 hours. Ride with a cell phone. There will be one aid station on course.

Not able to ride that day? Riding but available to help-out in some small way? We could really use some volunteers to help w. various tasks (aid station staffing, set-up at Winterlong, rider check-in/check-out, course de-flagging, etc.. etc...) Email
