2023 BWR Finale Set for Queretaro, Mexico
Today the Monuments of Cycling has revealed its complete schedule for the 2023 Belgian Waffle Ride. New events announced today for Utah, Kansas, and Mexico will all take place in the fall, extending the BWR calendar to a total of seven events. Below are the dates of the seven BWRs for 2023, all of which are included in the omnium for the Quadrupel Crown of Gravel Series:
Inaugural BWR AZ in Scottsdale, AZ on March 11 - 12, 2023
12th Annual BWR CA in San Diego on April 14 - April 16, 2023

Inaugural BWR México in Queretaro, MX on November 25 – 26, 2023
Riders competing for the Quadrupel honors and prize purse will be scored based on the total points of their top four (Quad) races. All Quad contenders must compete in BWR CA, which is being contested in San Marcos, CA, April 14 - 16, 2023. Registration for these new events will open on Tuesday, January 10, 2023, at 8:00 a.m. PST.
It will be interesting to follow the BWR in 2023, as the brand continues to expand in multiple countries. Most notable is the last stop of the season in Queretaro, Mexico, in an area called the Infierno Del Sur. Each course will almost certainly involve a multitude of technically challenging sectors. Waffle courses will range in length from 110- to 144-miles, and Wafer courses between 65- and 85-miles. Elevation gain will range from 6,500 feet to 14,000 feet for the various Waffle courses.
Planning on coming to San Diego for BWR, CA the weekend of April 14-16? Join us for the 3rd annual Shakeout in the Hills on Thursday April 13 just ahead of the 12th annual BWR. It will be a fun evening of connecting with friends and riding some of our favorite local terrain.
