Crooked Gravel

Crooked Gravel takes a few cues from an exploratory event the legendary Ron Kiefel put together a decade ago called Crooked Roubaix. Back before gravel bikes were really a thing, Kiefel and some friends set out on a 95-mile dirt-road adventure from Winter Park up into the high mountains on road bikes. Fast forward to 2025 and we’ve all become part of the exciting world of gravel.

Winter Park, Colorado has hundreds of miles of smooth and stunning gravel roads featuring beautiful wildflowers, Aspen groves and babbling brooks. Each course makes a loop through this amazing terrain, starting and finishing in the heart of downtown Winter Park. Both courses feature a neutral, police-led start down Main Street. From there, riders are directed onto their courses. The short course has 25 miles on rolling terrain before routing back to town. The long course is just more of a good thing -- more miles, more climbing and more views. Topping out at 10,500 feet with a 12-mile, sustained climb, this course offers a breathtaking challenge for all.

If nothing worth doing is easy, then Crooked Gravel is definitely worth doing!
