The date has been moved to May 20th this year to be closer to Blackfork. We couldn’t be more excited about this placement on the racing calendar and look forward to hosting you on the 2nd stop of the Ohio Gravel Racing Series.
Starting Location:
We are back at Nickel Valley Resorts for this year. The facility is amazing the staff thought our cycling community was very respectful, clean and kind at last years event so let’s do it again!

Courses:
We changed the shortest route for 2023 to make it finish the same direction as the other two courses. Updated route is below.
More gravel, less paved surface and an option for Juniors and beginners. How much more fun can it be?
Here are the routes to both courses. Please download and have them available on race day. The course will be marked but you should also be prepared to navigate yourself through the fun. If you miss a turn because you didn’t see the course marked please reference this section as our “I told you so”.
