Gravelstoke #NewKitDay Ride

  • The Lost Abbey Confessional (map)

Join us for a special edition of our Dev Team hosted Saturday ride where we will be celebrating #newkitday with our brand new Eliel Cycling kits. This gravel ride will follow our newly updated Saturday route which starts at the Lost Abbey Confessional in Cardiff by the Sea at 8:30AM. An aid station will also be on course, with location details provided on the morning of the ride. Enjoy casual post-ride hangs at The Confessional that opens at 11AM.

Route

The #NewKitDay gravel ride will feature a great mix of fire road, singletrack, gravel, pavement. Some sections may be rough, steep and loose so be careful out there!

EQUIPMENT

With a diversity of road and dirt surfaces the optimal bike for Gravelstoke rides are a gravel or cross bike with tires at least 38mm in width. Tubeless tires are highly recommended. Please ride completely self-sufficient with a hand pump, CO2 cartridges, extra tubes and other appropriate trailside repair gear.

SELF-SUPPORTED

This is a self-supported ride, with no SAG wagon or aid stations. Routes are not marked and you are 100% responsible for yourself, your mechanicals, your food/water resupplies, and your retrieval off route (in case of emergency).

TRAIL ETIQUETTE

Please help us keep our trails safe and enjoyable for all. Whenever passing hikers, equestrians or other riders be prepared to slow down, say hi and pass in a safe and friendly manner. Always stay on designated trails and never ride dirt in wet or muddy conditions. Find more information on trail etiquette here.
