Far Out Gravel Adventure Series

Join Thank Gravel It's Friday and Rapha Boulder for the Far Out Gravel Adventure Series, a set of three gnarly gravel rides into the mountains of Boulder Colorado. Each ride will be around 60-80 miles with 6,000+ ft of elevation, plenty of dirt, technical single track, hike-a-bikes and steep rocky climbs... a far out ride not for the faint of heart. Reach all 5 checkpoints during each ride (plus a chance for an extra bonus point), and collect your points throughout the series. When you register, you will receive a number. Don't forget your number, you will use it to collect your points.

The first ride kicks off on Saturday June 11 with each consecutive ride about six weeks apart. Each ride will be a little bigger, a little gnarlier and a little more fun. The route and ride details will be sent to all participants the day before each ride. Roll from Rapha at 8:15am, and we'll have a neutral roll out to the first climb. From there, you can ride at your own pace or with friends, and finish the challenge on your own time. Each checkpoint will be indicated on the route, and when you arrive to each check point, you must find the book, and rip out the page that corresponds with your number. Don't loose the page, you'll drop off all your pages at Rapha Boulder after each ride.

Our friends at Rapha Boulder and will have an aid station at one of the checkpoints on each ride supported by Skratch Labs, make sure to stop and check out the task they have in store for you. If you complete it, post it, and tag @thankgravelitsfriday, @rapha_n_america and @skratchlabs and hashtag #faroutgravel, you will earn an extra point. There will also be a checkpoint at the Gold Hill Store on each ride and we encourage supporting them, you will be happy they are there once you arrive. Lets support our local small businesses!

Rock your best 80s attire; neon, leg warmers, mesh, and mullets...best spirited from each ride and riders with the most points by the end of the series will win some sick prizes. Don't worry, if you collect at least 12 points you will also get a prize. There will be something for everyone!
