Join us on Saturday, Dec 14 for a 50-mile gravel ride in East County San Diego. This is one our favorite areas to explore in the county, and we’re excited to partner with a few local legends who will be sharing their habitat with us.
THE ROUTE
Precise route details are still cooking, but anticipate the course will include 50-55 miles of mixed terrain and over 4000 ft of elevation gain. We plan to include 1-2 resupply/water stops, and find a local establishment to gather at post ride. Be sure to subscribe to be informed on all key details for this and future Gravelstoke experiences.
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 40mm 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.
