ABOUT ABOUT

Join us as we re-visit this beautiful area on another epic gravel adventure! The Carrizo Plain is a large valley, frozen in time and known to few. It covers 250,000 acres of hills and grasslands which are prime for gravel adventures.

  • The Route
    • The ride will be a large gravel loop ranging between 60-70 miles with approx 2,500-3,000 ft elevation gain.
    • The terrain is decently mild with rolling hills however there are a couple difficult but short climbs.
    • The route itself is primarily a hardpacked gravel road however expect areas of loose dirt/sand/gravel as well as the possibility of some short but non technical single track.

Some of us will be camping the night before and likely the night after and you are welcome to join us!
