A Gravelstoke Adventure
We've created a special event for our friends here in North County and beyond, a hunt that takes gravelers to 5 predetermined locations on dirt throughout the North.
Your goal, gather all 5 pieces of uniquely colored gravel, 1 at each location. The 5 locations will be revealed 24 hours in advance of the event. Hunters are encouraged to go in teams of 2 or more and take the route of their choosing. For each piece of gravel collected, 1 raffle ticket is awarded. If all 5 gathered you get a bonus ticket!

In case you would rather not choose your own route, we are providing some suggestions below of various difficulties. Additionally, there will be groups rides available for each suggested route.
- Mellow Stoke 35: Hunt of the North suggested route for those who want to hit all checkpoints, keeps things chill and maintains 50% road with mileage around 35 miles.
- Super Stoke 40: Hunt of the North route that resembles a typical Sunday Gravelstoke ride with mileage around 40 miles, an average pace with regroups but definitely a challenge.
- Extreme Stoke 50: Hunt of the North route is only for the strongest of riders, with lots of challenging climbs and maximum dirt. Must be able to complete in 4 hours or less!
